Psalm 130
A song of ascents.
1Out of the depths I cry to you, Lord;
2Lord, hear my voice.
Let your ears be attentive
to my cry for mercy.
3If you, Lord, kept a record of sins,
Lord, who could stand?
4But with you there is forgiveness,
so that we can, with reverence, serve you.
5I wait for the Lord, my whole being waits,
and in his word I put my hope.
6I wait for the Lord
more than watchmen wait for the morning,
more than watchmen wait for the morning.
7Israel, put your hope in the Lord,
for with the Lord is unfailing love
and with him is full redemption.
8He himself will redeem Israel
from all their sins.
Herren er villig til at tilgive
1En valfartssang.
Herre, jeg er dybt fortvivlet.
2Hør mit råb, oh, Gud!
Lyt til min tryglende bøn!
3Hvis du holdt regnskab med alle vore synder,
hvem kunne da undslippe dommen?
4Men jeg ved, du er villig til at tilgive,
og det ansporer mig til ærefrygt.
5Jeg venter på, at du griber ind, Herre,
jeg ser frem til, at du taler til mig.
6Jeg længes mere efter at høre fra dig,
end nattevagten længes efter daggry.
7Israels folk, sæt jeres håb til Herren,
for han er trofast og barmhjertig.
Han står parat til at frelse,
8han vil redde os ud af syndens morads.
