Zaburi 130

1 Wimbo wa kwenda juu. Kutoka vilindini ninakulilia, Ee Bwana.

Out of the depths I have cried to you, Adonai.

2 Ee Bwana, sikia sauti yangu. Masikio yako na yawe masikivu kwa kilio changu unihurumie.

Lord, sh'ma ·hear obey· my voice. Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.

3 Kama wewe, Ee Bwana, ungeweka kumbukumbu ya dhambi, Ee Bwana, ni nani angeliweza kusimama?

If you, Yah, kept a record of depravities (moral evils), Lord, who could stand?

4 Lakini kwako kuna msamaha, kwa hiyo wewe unaogopwa.

But there is forgiveness with you, therefore you are feared.

5 Namngojea Bwana, nafsi yangu inangojea, katika neno lake naweka tumaini langu.

I wait for Adonai. My soul waits. I hope in his word.

6 Nafsi yangu inamngojea Bwana kuliko walinzi waingojeavyo asubuhi, naam, kuliko walinzi waingojeavyo asubuhi.

My soul longs for 'Adonay [Lord] more than watchmen long for the morning; more than watchmen for the morning.

7 Ee Israeli, mtumaini Bwana, maana kwa Bwana kuna upendo usiokoma, na kwake kuna ukombozi kamili.

Israel [God prevails], hope in Adonai, for with Adonai there is chesed ·loving-kindness·. With him is abundant redemption.

8 Yeye mwenyewe ataikomboa Israeli kutoka dhambi zao zote.

He will redeem Israel [God prevails] from all their depravities (moral evils).
