< Psalms 137 >

1 For David, [a Psalm] of Jeremias. By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat; and wept when we remembered Sion.
Iti igid dagiti karayan ti Babilonia, nagtugaw ken nagsangsangitkami idi napanunotmi ti maipanggep iti Sion.
2 We hung our harps on the willows in the midst of it.
Kadagiti kayo ti karawawe, insab-itmi sadiay dagiti arpami.
3 For there they that had taken us captive asked of us the words of a song; and they that had carried us away [asked] a hymn, [saying], Sing us [one] of the songs of Sion.
Dagiti nangtiliw kadakami sadiay kayatda nga agkantakami, ken dagiti nanglalais kadakami kayatda nga agragsakkami, a kunada, “Kantaandakami iti maysa kadagiti kanta ti Sion.”
4 How should we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?
Kasanokami a makakanta iti saniweng maipapan kenni Yahweh iti ganggannaet a daga?
5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget [its skill].
No iyaleng-alengko ti pakalaglagipan kenka, O Jerusalem, malipatan koma ti makannawan nga imak ti laingna.
6 May my tongue cleave to my throat, if I do not remember thee; if I do not prefer Jerusalem as the chief of my joy.
Dumket koma ti dilak iti ngaresko no saankan a panunoten ni kaanoman, no saanen a ti Jerusalem ti imbilangko a naindaklan a pakaragsakak.
7 Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase [it], rase [it], even to its foundations.
Lagipem, O Yahweh ti inaramid dagiti Edomita iti aldaw a narba ti Jerusalem. Kinunada, “Rebbaenyo, rebbaenyo aginggana kadagiti adigina.”
8 Wretched daughter of Babylon! blessed [shall he be] who shall reward thee as thou hast rewarded us.
Anak a babai ti Babilonia, nga asidegen a madadael – mabendisionan koma ti tao, ti siasinoman a mangibales kenka iti inaramidmo kadakami.
9 Blessed [shall he be] who shall seize and dash thine infants against the rock.
Mabendisionan koma ti tao, ti siasinoman a mangala ken mangibaot kadagiti ubbingmo iti dakkel a bato.
