Psalm 129 (130)

1 Canticum graduum. De profundis clamavi ad te, Domine ;

1 A gradual canticle. Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord:

2 Domine, exaudi vocem meam. Fiant aures tuæ intendentes in vocem deprecationis meæ.

2 Lord, hear my voice. Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.

3 Si iniquitates observaveris, Domine, Domine, quis sustinebit ?

3 If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.

4 Quia apud te propitiatio est ; et propter legem tuam sustinui te, Domine. Sustinuit anima mea in verbo ejus :

4 For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord. My soul hath relied on his word:

5 speravit anima mea in Domino.

5 my soul hath hoped in the Lord.

6 A custodia matutina usque ad noctem, speret Israël in Domino.

6 From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.

7 Quia apud Dominum misericordia, et copiosa apud eum redemptio.

7 Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.

8 Et ipse redimet Israël ex omnibus iniquitatibus ejus.

8 And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
