Kando ya mito ya Babeli tuliketi na tulilia tulipokumbuka kuhusu Sayuni.

Tulitundika vinubi vyetu kwenye miti ya Babylon.

Huko watekaji wetu walitaka tuwaimbie, na wale walio tudhihaki walitutaka sisi tufurahi, wakisema, “Tuimbieni moja ya nyimbo za Sayuni.”
4 Kawbangmaw Angraeng ih laa to minawk prae ah ka sah o thai tih?
Tungewezaje kuimba wimbo unaomuhusu Yahwe katika nchi ya ugeni?
5 Aw Jerusalem, nang to kang pahnet o ving nahaeloe, ka bantang ban mah a sakthaihaih to pahnet roep nasoe.
Kama nikikusahau wewe, Yerusalemu, basi mkono wangu wa kuume na usahau ujuzi wake.
6 Nang to kang panoek o ai boeh moe, kang hoe o haih koek Jerusalem to ka pakoeh o ai boeh nahaeloe, ka palai hae pakha ranuiah angbet caeng nasoe.
Ulimi wangu na ushikamane juu ya kinywa changu kama nisipokufikiria tena, na kama sipendelei zaidi Yerusalemu kuliko furaha yangu kuu.
7 Aw Angraeng, Jerusalem amtimh na niah, im hmuen to phrae oh, phrae oh, tiah kathui Edom kaminawk to poek ah.
Kumbuka, Ee Yahwe, kile walichofanya Waedomu siku ya anguko la Yerusalemu. Walisema, “Ibomoeni, ibomoeni mpaka chini kwenye misingi yake.”

Binti za Babeli, hivi karibuni wataharibiwa- mtu na abalikiwe, yeyote atakaye walipizia yale mliotufanyia sisi.
9 Na caa nawktanawk to lak moe, thlung nuiah va kami loe tahamhoih.
Mtu na abarikiwe, yeyote achukuaye na kusambaratisha watoto wenu juu ya jiwe.
