Mapisarema 130

1 Rwiyo rworwendo. Ndinodanidzira kwamuri Jehovha, ndiri pakadzika;

A song of ascents. Out of the depths I call to you, Lord.

2 haiwa Jehovha, inzwai inzwi rangu. Nzeve dzenyu ngadzinzwe kuchemera kwangu ngoni.

Lord, hear my voice: give heed with your ears to my loud plea.

3 Dai imi, iyemi Jehovha, maironda zvakaipa zvomunhu, haiwa Jehovha, ndianiko aimira?

If you should mark sin, Lord, O Lord, who could stand?

4 Asi kwamuri kune kukanganwira; naizvozvo imi munotyiwa.

But with you is forgiveness, that you may be feared.

5 Ndinomirira Jehovha, mweya wangu unomirira, uye tariro yangu iri mushoko rake.

I wait for the Lord, I wait for his word,

6 Mweya wangu unorindira Ishe kupfuura varindi vanomirira rungwanani.

I look for the Lord more than watchman for morning, than watchman for morning.

7 Haiwa Israeri, isa tariro yako muna Jehovha, nokuti Jehovha ane rudo rusingaperi uye kwaari kune dzikinuro izere.

Israel, hope in the Lord: with the Lord there is love with him plenteous redemption.

8 Iye pachake achadzikinura Israeri kubva pazvivi zvavo zvose.

And he redeems Israel from all his iniquities.
