Psalm 130

Language: Hebrew

שִׁיר הַמַּעֲלוֹת:
מִמַּעֲמַקִּים קְרָאתִיךָ    יְהוָה. 
אֲדֹנָי,    שִׁמְעָה בְקוֹלִי:
תִּהְיֶינָה אָזְנֶיךָ, קַשֻּׁבוֹת--    לְקוֹל, תַּחֲנוּנָי.
אִם-עֲו‍ֹנוֹת תִּשְׁמָר-יָהּ--    אֲדֹנָי, מִי יַעֲמֹד. 
כִּי-עִמְּךָ הַסְּלִיחָה--    לְמַעַן, תִּוָּרֵא. 
קִוִּיתִי יְהוָה, קִוְּתָה נַפְשִׁי;    וְלִדְבָרוֹ הוֹחָלְתִּי.
נַפְשִׁי לַאדֹנָי--    מִשֹּׁמְרִים לַבֹּקֶר, שֹׁמְרִים לַבֹּקֶר. 
יַחֵל יִשְׂרָאֵל, אֶל-יְהוָה:    כִּי-עִם-יְהוָה הַחֶסֶד; וְהַרְבֵּה עִמּוֹ פְדוּת. 
וְהוּא, יִפְדֶּה אֶת-יִשְׂרָאֵל--    מִכֹּל, עֲו‍ֹנֹתָיו.
Transliteration: 
Shir hamaalot mima'amakim keraticha adonai
Adonai schimah vekoli tiyena oznecha kashuvot
Lekol tachanunai
Im avonot tishmor ya adonai mi yaamod
Ki imcha haslicha
Lemaan tivare kiviti adonai
Kivta nafshi velidvaro hochalti
Nafshi ladonai
Mishomrim laboker
Yachel yisrael el adonai
Ki im adonai hachesed
Veharbeh imo fedut
Vehu yifdeh et yisrael mikol avonotav.

Psalmus 129 (130)

Language: Latin

1 [Canticum graduum.] De profundis clamavi ad te, Domine;
2 Domine, exaudi vocem meam. Fiant aures tuæ intendentes 
  in vocem deprecationis meæ.
3 Si iniquitates observaveris, Domine, Domine, quis sustinebit?
4 Quia apud te propitiatio est; et propter legem tuam sustinui te, Domine.
  Sustinuit anima mea in verbo ejus:
5 speravit anima mea in Domino.
6 A custodia matutina usque ad noctem, speret Israël in Domino.
7 Quia apud Dominum misericordia, et copiosa apud eum redemptio.
8 Et ipse redimet Israël ex omnibus iniquitatibus ejus.1
