Psalms 130

1 A Song of the going up. Out of the deep have I sent up my cry to you, O Lord.

Cantique des degrés. Des profondeurs de l’abîme, je t’invoque, ô Eternel!

2 Lord, let my voice come before you: let your ears be awake to the voice of my prayer.

Seigneur, écouté ma voix, que tes oreilles soient attentives aux accents de mes supplications.

3 O Jah, if you took note of every sin, who would go free?

Si tu tenais compte de nos fautes, Seigneur, qui pourrait subsister devant toi?

4 But there is forgiveness with you, so that you may be feared.

Mais chez toi l’emporte le pardon, de telle sorte qu’on te révère.

5 I am waiting for the Lord, my soul is waiting for him, and my hope is in his word.

J’Espère en l’Eternel, mon âme est pleine d’espoir, et j’ai toute confiance en sa parole.

6 My soul is watching for the Lord more than those who are watching for the morning; yes, more than the watchers for the morning.

Mon âme attend le Seigneur plus ardemment que les guetteurs le matin, oui, que les guetteurs n’attendent le matin.

7 O Israel, have hope in the Lord; for with the Lord is mercy and full salvation.

Qu’Israël mette son attente en l’Eternel, car chez l’Eternel domine la grâce et abonde le salut.

8 And he will make Israel free from all his sins.

C’Est lui qui affranchit Israël de toutes ses fautes.
