Salmos 130

A Song of Ascents.

1 Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Jehovah.

2 Lord, hear my voice:

Let thine ears be attentive

To the voice of my supplications.

3 If thou, Jehovah, shouldest mark iniquities,

O Lord, who could stand?

4 But there is forgiveness with thee,

That thou mayest be feared.

5 I wait for Jehovah, my soul doth wait,

And in his word do I hope.

6 My soul waiteth for the Lord

More than watchmen wait for the morning;

Yea, more than watchmen for the morning.

7 O Israel, hope in Jehovah;

For with Jehovah there is lovingkindness,

And with him is plenteous redemption.

8 And he will redeem Israel

From all his iniquities.

Uit die dieptes.

1 'n BEDEVAARTSLIED.

Uit die dieptes roep ek U aan, o Here!

2 Here, hoor na my stem; laat u ore luister na die stem van my smekinge.

3 As U, Here, die ongeregtighede in gedagtenis hou, Here, wie sal bestaan?

4 Maar by U is vergewing, dat U gevrees mag word.

5 Ek wag op die Here; my siel wag, en ek hoop op sy woord.

6 My siel wag op die Here meer as wagters op die môre, wagters op die môre.

7 Wag op die Here, o Israel! want by die Here is die goedertierenheid, en by Hom is daar veel verlossing;

8 en Hy self sal Israel verlos van al sy ongeregtighede.
