< Psalms 137 >
1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
Waxaannu ag fadhiisannay webiyaashii Baabuloon, Oo waannu ooynay markii aannu Siyoon soo xusuusannay.
2 Upon the willows in the midst thereof we hanged up our harps.
Oo waxaannu kataaradahayagii sudhannay geedaha safsaafkaa.
3 For there they that led us captive asked of us words of song, and our tormentors asked of us mirth: 'Sing us one of the songs of Zion.'
Waayo, kuwii maxaabiis ahaanta noo watay ayaa halkaas gabayo nagu weyddiistay, Oo kuwii na silciyey ayaa farxad na weyddiistay, oo waxay nagu yidhaahdeen, Noogu gabya gabayadii Siyoon midkood.
4 How shall we sing the LORD'S song in a foreign land?
Bal sidee baannu gabaygii Rabbiga ugu gabaynaa Dal qalaad dhexdiis?
5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
Yeruusaalemay, haddaan ku illoobo, Gacantayda midig ha illowdo sancadeedii.
6 Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I remember thee not; if I set not Jerusalem above my chiefest joy.
Carrabkayguna ha ku dhego dhanxanagga afkayga, Haddaanan ku xusuusan, Iyo haddaanan Yeruusaalem ka sii jeclaan Farxaddayda ugu weyn.
7 Remember, O LORD, against the children of Edom the day of Jerusalem; who said: 'Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.'
Rabbiyow, soo xusuuso reer Edom, Kuwaasoo maalintii Yeruusaalem yidhi, Dumiya, dumiya, tan iyo aasaaskeeda.
8 O daughter of Babylon, that art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that repayeth thee as thou hast served us.
Gabadha Baabuloonay, waa lagu baabbi'in doonaa, Waxaa faraxsanaan doona kii kaa abaalmariya Sidii aad nagu samaysay.
9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the rock.
Waxaa faraxsanaan doona kii dhallaankaaga qabsada Oo dhagaxa weyn ku dul tuura.
