Psalms 137

1 By the riuers of Babel we sate, and there wee wept, when we remembred Zion.

KIT momoder ni kailan pilap en Papel o janejan, ni ni tamanda Jion.

2 Wee hanged our harpes vpon the willowes in the middes thereof.

Kit lanadar at arp akan nin tuka kan, me mi waja o.

3 Then they that ledde vs captiues, required of vs songs and mirth, when wee had hanged vp our harpes, saying, Sing vs one of the songs of Zion.

Pwe me jali kit edi inda, jen kaul, o jen pereperen ni at mamaiei: Komail wiai on kit kaul apot duen Jion.

4 Howe shall we sing, said we, a song of the Lord in a strange land?

Iaduen at pan kak wiada kaul nil leowa nan jap en men wai?

5 If I forget thee, O Ierusalem, let my right hand forget to play.

Ma i pan monoke uk ala Ierujalem, pa i pali maun ap pil pun monokinokla.

6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleaue to the roofe of my mouth: yea, if I preferre not Ierusalem to my chiefe ioy.

Lo i pan paj on pan natanat ai, ma i jolar pan taman uk adar, ma i jolar pan peren kida Ierujalem mon meakaroj.

7 Remember the children of Edom, O Lord, in the day of Ierusalem, which saide, Rase it, rase it to the foundation thereof.

Main leowa, kom kotin tamanda en men Edom ar lokolokaia ni ran apwal en lerujalem Kawela, kawela lao Iel on nan pwel!

8 O daughter of Babel, worthy to be destroyed, blessed shall he be that rewardeth thee, as thou hast serued vs.

Toun Papel, morjued koe, re meid pai, me pan wiai on uk duen me koe wiadar!

9 Blessed shall he be that taketh and dasheth thy children against the stones.

Meid pai ir, me pan koledi noum jeri pwelel o kajuk pajan nin takai!
