Psalms 130

1 Orin fún ìgòkè. Láti inú ibú wá ni èmi ń ké pè é ọ́ Olúwa

Yahweh, I have a lot of troubles/many difficulties, so I call out to you.

2 Olúwa, gbóhùn mi, jẹ́ kí etí rẹ kí o tẹ́ sílẹ̀ sí ohùn ẹ̀bẹ̀ mi.

Yahweh, hear me, while I call out to you [SYN] to be merciful to me!

3 Olúwa, ìbá ṣe pé kí ìwọ máa sàmì ẹ̀ṣẹ̀, Olúwa, tá ni ìbá dúró.

Yahweh, if you kept a record of the sins [that we have committed], not one [of us] [RHQ] would escape from being condemned [and punished]

4 Nítorí ìdáríjì wà lọ́dọ̀ rẹ, kí a lè máa bẹ̀rù rẹ.

But you forgive us, with the result that we greatly revere you.

5 Èmi dúró de Olúwa, ọkàn mi dúró, àti nínú ọ̀rọ̀ rẹ ni èmi ń ṣe ìrètí.

Yahweh has said [that he would help/rescue me]; I trust what he said, and I wait eagerly for him to do that.

6 Ọkàn mi dúró de Olúwa, ju àwọn tí ń ṣọ́nà òwúrọ̀ lọ, àní ju àwọn tí ń ṣọ́nà òwúrọ̀ lọ.

I wait for Yahweh [to help me] more than watchmen wait for the light to dawn; yes, I wait more eagerly than they do!

7 Israẹli, ìwọ ní ìrètí ní ti Olúwa: nítorí pé lọ́dọ̀ Olúwa ni àánú wà, àti lọ́dọ̀ rẹ̀ ni ọ̀pọ̀lọpọ̀ ìdáǹdè wà.

You [my fellow] Israelis, confidently expect that Yahweh [will bless us]. [He will bless us] because he faithfully loves [us], and he is very willing to save/rescue [us].

8 Òun ó sì dá Israẹli ní ìdè kúrò nínú ẹ̀ṣẹ̀ rẹ̀ gbogbo.

And he will save us Israeli [people] from [being punished for] all the sins that [we] have committed.
