< Psalms 137 >
1 By the rivers of Babylon, there, we sat down, yea we wept—when we remembered Zion:
Ke kut muta sisken infacl Babylon, Kut tung we ke kut esamak Zion.
2 Upon the willows—in the midst thereof, hanged we our lyres:
Kut srupusrak harp natusr Ulun sak willow su tu siskasr.
3 For, there, our captors asked of us words of song, and our plunderers—gladness, —Sing us of the songs of Zion!
Elos su sruokkuti elos sap kut in on; Elos sap kut in akpwaryalos, Ac fahk, “Yuk soko on ke acn Zion kut in lohng.”
4 How shall we sing the song of Yahweh, on a foreign soil?
Kut ac on fuka soko on nu sin LEUM GOD In sie facl sac?
5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, Let my right-hand forget:
Lela tuh nga in tia sifil ku in srital ke harp Nga fin mulkinkomla, Jerusalem!
6 Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I do not remember thee! if I do not lift up Jerusalem above the head of mine own gladness.
Lela nga in tia sifil ku in on Nga fin tia esam kom, Nga fin tia nunku mu kom pa mwe insewowo yohk emeet luk uh!
7 Remember, O Yahweh, against the sons of Edom, the day of Jerusalem, —how they continued to say—Overthrow! Overthrow! unto the foundation within it.
O LEUM GOD, esam ma mwet Edom elos tuh oru Ke len se sruhu acn Jerusalem. Esam lah elos tuh fahk, “Sukella! Sukella nwe ke musalsalu fin fohk uh!”
8 O ruined daughter of Babylon, —how happy the man who shall repay thee thy dealing, wherewith thou didst deal with us!
Babylon, kom ac fah kunausyukla. Insewowo elos su fah folokin nu sum Ma kom tuh oru nu sesr —
9 How happy the man who shall snatch away and dash thy children against the crag.
Su ac fah eisla tulik fusr nutuwos Ac sakunulos fin eot uh.
