< Amahubo 130 >

1 Ingoma yemiqanso. Ngingaphansi ekujuleni ngiyakhala kuwe, Thixo;
Out of the depths have I cried unto you, O LORD.
2 Thixo, zwana ilizwi lami. Indlebe zakho kazilalele ukukhala kwami ngicela umusa.
Lord, hear my voice: let your ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3 Aluba wena, Thixo ububhala phansi zonke izono, ngubani ongema na Nkosi?
If you, LORD, should mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4 Kodwa kuwe kulentethelelo; ngalokho uyesatshwa.
But there is forgiveness with you, that you may be feared.
5 Ngiyamlindela uThixo, umphefumulo wami uyalinda, ngibeka ithemba lami elizwini lakho.
I wait for the LORD, my soul does wait, and in his word do I hope.
6 Umphefumulo wami ulindela uThixo okudlula abalindi bemelele ukusa, okudlula abalindi bemelele ukusa.
My soul waits for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.
7 We Israyeli, beka ithemba lakho kuThixo, ngoba kuye uThixo kulothando olungaphuthiyo njalo kuye kulensindiso epheleleyo.
Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is abundant redemption.
8 Yena ngokwakhe uzahlenga u-Israyeli kuzozonke izono zabo.
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
