Gaidot uz pestīšanu
1 Augšupceļa dziesma.
No dzelmes saucu
tev, mans Kungs:
2 Kungs, ieklausies manā balsī,
lai dzird tavas ausis
manu gaušanos!
3 Kungs, ja tu skaitītu mūsu apgrēcības,
mans Kungs, kurš gan pastāvētu?
4 Bet pie tevis ir piedošana,
lai tevi bīstas!
5 Es gaidu Kungu no visas sirds,
uz viņa vārdu es ceru,
6 es gaidu Kungu vairāk
nekā sargi rītu,
nekā sargi – rītu!
7 Ceri, Israēl, uz Kungu –
viņā ir žēlastība!
Tik daudzus viņš izpircis!
8 Viņš izpirks Israēlu
no katras apgrēcības!
A Song of degrees.
1 Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O LORD.
2 Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.
3 If thou, LORD, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?
4 But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.
5 I wait for the LORD, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.
6 My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.
7 Let Israel hope in the LORD: for with the LORD there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.
8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
