1 Out of the depths I have cried to you, Yahweh.

2 Lord, hear my voice.

Let your ears be attentive to the voice of my petitions.

3 If you, Yah, kept a record of sins,

Lord, who could stand?

4 But there is forgiveness with you,

therefore you are feared.

5 I wait for Yahweh.

My soul waits.

I hope in his word.

6 My soul longs for the Lord more than watchmen long for the morning,

more than watchmen for the morning.

7 Israel, hope in Yahweh,

for there is loving kindness with Yahweh.

Abundant redemption is with him.

8 He will redeem Israel from all their sins.

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.
