Psalmus 129 (130)
Psalm 129 (130)
De profundis clamavi
From the depths of the abyss, I cry out
Ipse salvum faciet populum suum a peccatis eorum (Mt 1, 21).
Behold, He will free His people from their sins (Mt 1:21).
De profúndis clamávi ad te, Dómine; * Dómine, exáudi vocem meam.
Out of the depths I have cried to thee, O Lord: Lord, hear my voice.
Fiant aures tuæ intendéntes * in vocem deprecatiónis meæ.
Let thy ears be attentive to the voice of my supplication.
Si iniquitátes observáveris, Dómine, * Dómine, quis sustinébit?
If thou, O Lord, wilt mark iniquities: Lord, who shall stand it.
Quia apud te propitiátio est, * ut timeámus te.
For with thee there is merciful forgiveness: and by reason of thy law, I have waited for thee, O Lord.
Sustínui te, Dómine, * sustínuit ánima mea in verbo eius;
My soul hath relied on his word: my soul hath hoped in the Lord.
sperávit ánima mea in Dómino * magis quam custódes auróram.
From the morning watch even until night, let Israel hope in the Lord.
Magis quam custódes auróram * speret Israel in Dómino,
More than the guards wait for the dawn, let Israel hope in the Lord,
quia apud Dóminum misericórdia, * et copiósa apud eum redémptio.
Because with the Lord there is mercy: and with him plentiful redemption.
Et ipse rédimet Israel * ex ómnibus iniquitátibus eius.
And he shall redeem Israel from all his iniquities.
