患難中求助的禱告

上聖殿朝聖之詩。

130 耶和華啊!
我在絕望的深淵中向你呼求。
主啊,求你垂聽我的呼求,
側耳聽我的祈求。
主耶和華啊,
倘若你追究我們的罪過,
誰能站得住呢?
然而,你赦免我們,
所以你當受敬畏。

我等候耶和華,一心等候祂,
祂的話語是我的盼望。
我一心等候耶和華,
比守夜的盼望天明還要迫切,
比守夜的盼望天明還要迫切。
以色列啊,要信靠耶和華,
因為祂有慈愛,能完全救贖我們。
祂必把以色列從罪惡中救贖出來。

Psalm 130

A song of ascents.

Out of the depths(A) I cry to you,(B) Lord;
    Lord, hear my voice.(C)
Let your ears be attentive(D)
    to my cry for mercy.(E)

If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
    Lord, who could stand?(F)
But with you there is forgiveness,(G)
    so that we can, with reverence, serve you.(H)

I wait for the Lord,(I) my whole being waits,(J)
    and in his word(K) I put my hope.
I wait for the Lord
    more than watchmen(L) wait for the morning,
    more than watchmen wait for the morning.(M)

Israel, put your hope(N) in the Lord,
    for with the Lord is unfailing love(O)
    and with him is full redemption.(P)
He himself will redeem(Q) Israel
    from all their sins.(R)

130 Out of the depths have I cried unto thee, O Lord.

Lord, hear my voice: let thine ears be attentive to the voice of my supplications.

If thou, Lord, shouldest mark iniquities, O Lord, who shall stand?

But there is forgiveness with thee, that thou mayest be feared.

I wait for the Lord, my soul doth wait, and in his word do I hope.

My soul waiteth for the Lord more than they that watch for the morning: I say, more than they that watch for the morning.

Let Israel hope in the Lord: for with the Lord there is mercy, and with him is plenteous redemption.

And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
