< Zaburi 130 >

1 Toka ndani yangu ninakulilia, Yahwe.
“A psalm of the steps, or the goings up.” Out of the depths do I cry to thee, O LORD!
2 Bwana, usikie sauti yangu; masikio yako na yasikie kwa makini kuomba kwangu kwa ajili ya huruma.
O Lord! listen to my voice, Let thine ears be attentive to my supplication!
3 Kama wewe, Yahwe, ungehesabu maovu, Bwana, ni nani angesimama?
If thou, LORD, shouldst treasure up transgressions, Lord, who could stand?
4 Lakini kwako kuna msamaha, ili uweze kuheshimiwa.
But with thee is forgiveness, That thou mayst be feared.
5 Ninamngoja Yahwe, nafsi yangu inasubiri, na katika neno lake ninatumainia.
I trust in the LORD; my soul doth trust, And in his promise do I confide.
6 Nafsi yangu inamngoja Bwana kuliko mlinzi aingojavyo asubuhi.
My soul waiteth for the LORD More than they who watch for the morning; Yea, more than they who watch for the morning!
7 Israeli, umtumainie yahwe. Yahwe ni wenye huruma, na yuko tayari kusamehe.
O Israel! trust in the LORD! For with the LORD is mercy, And with him is plenteous redemption.
8 Ni yeye ambaye ataikomboa istaeli dhidi ya dhambi zake zote.
He will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
