| | 1 | （上行之诗。）耶和华阿，我从深处向你求告。
A song of ascents. Out of the depths I cry to you, O LORD; | |
| | 2 | 主阿，求你听我的声音。愿你侧耳听我恳求的声音。
O Lord, hear my voice. Let your ears be attentive to my cry for mercy. | |
| | 3 | 主耶和华阿，你若究察罪孽，谁能站得住呢？
If you, O LORD, kept a record of sins, O Lord, who could stand? | |
| | 4 | 但在你有赦免之恩，要叫人敬畏你。
But with you there is forgiveness; therefore you are feared. | |
| | 5 | 我等候耶和华，我的心等候。我也仰望他的话。
I wait for the LORD, my soul waits, and in his word I put my hope. | |
| | 6 | 我的心等候主，胜于守夜的，等候天亮，胜于守夜的，等候天亮。
My soul waits for the Lord more than watchmen wait for the morning, more than watchmen wait for the morning. | |
| | 7 | 以色列阿，你当仰望耶和华。因他有慈爱，有丰盛的救恩。
O Israel, put your hope in the LORD, for with the LORD is unfailing love and with him is full redemption. | |
| | 8 | 他必救赎以色列脱离一切的罪孽。
He himself will redeem Israel from all their sins. | |
