< Psalms 137 >
1 At [the] rivers of - Babylon there we sat also we wept when remembered we Zion.
我们曾在巴比伦的河边坐下, 一追想锡安就哭了。
2 On poplars in [the] midst of it we hung up harps our.
我们把琴挂在那里的柳树上;
3 For there they asked us captors our words of a song and mockers our gladness sing for us one of [the] song[s] of Zion.
因为在那里,掳掠我们的要我们唱歌, 抢夺我们的要我们作乐,说: 给我们唱一首锡安歌吧!
4 How? will we sing [the] song of Yahweh on ground of foreignness.
我们怎能在外邦唱耶和华的歌呢?
5 If I will forget you O Jerusalem may it forget right [hand] my.
耶路撒冷啊,我若忘记你, 情愿我的右手忘记技巧!
6 May it cleave tongue my - to palate my if not I will remember you if not I will lift up Jerusalem above [the] chief of joy my.
我若不记念你, 若不看耶路撒冷过于我所最喜乐的, 情愿我的舌头贴于上膛!
7 Remember O Yahweh - to [the] people of Edom [the] day of Jerusalem who were saying lay bare - lay bare to the foundation in it.
耶路撒冷遭难的日子, 以东人说:拆毁!拆毁! 直拆到根基! 耶和华啊,求你记念这仇!
8 O daughter of Babylon that is about to be destroyed how blessed! [is one] who he will repay to you dealing your that you dealt to us.
将要被灭的巴比伦城啊, 报复你像你待我们的,那人便为有福!
9 How blessed! - [is one] who he will seize and he will smash children your to the rock.
拿你的婴孩摔在磐石上的, 那人便为有福!
