< Zaburi 130 >
1 Toka ndani yangu ninakulilia, Yahwe.
A song of ascents. Out of the depths I call to you, Lord.
2 Bwana, usikie sauti yangu; masikio yako na yasikie kwa makini kuomba kwangu kwa ajili ya huruma.
Lord, hear my voice: give heed with your ears to my loud plea.
3 Kama wewe, Yahwe, ungehesabu maovu, Bwana, ni nani angesimama?
If you should mark sin, Lord, O Lord, who could stand?
4 Lakini kwako kuna msamaha, ili uweze kuheshimiwa.
But with you is forgiveness, that you may be feared.
5 Ninamngoja Yahwe, nafsi yangu inasubiri, na katika neno lake ninatumainia.
I wait for the Lord, I wait for his word,
6 Nafsi yangu inamngoja Bwana kuliko mlinzi aingojavyo asubuhi.
I look for the Lord more than watchman for morning, than watchman for morning.
7 Israeli, umtumainie yahwe. Yahwe ni wenye huruma, na yuko tayari kusamehe.
Israel, hope in the Lord: with the Lord there is love with him plenteous redemption.
8 Ni yeye ambaye ataikomboa istaeli dhidi ya dhambi zake zote.
And he redeems Israel from all his iniquities.
