Psalms 137
1 When we [had been taken to] Babylonia, [far from Jerusalem], we sat down by the rivers there, and we cried when we thought about [the temple on] Zion [Hill in Jerusalem].
Babilonima me'nea tintamimofo ankenarega mani'neta, Jerusalemi kumakura tagesa nentahita zavira te'none.
2 On the willow trees [alongside the rivers] we hung our harps [because we did not want to play them any more because we were very sad].
Zavenama neheta zagame'ma nehuna hapuramina, wilo zafaramimpi runtani'none.
3 The [soldiers] who had captured us [and taken us to Babylonia] told us to sing [for them]; they told us to (entertain them/make them happy), saying, “Sing for us one of the songs [that you previously sang in] Jerusalem!”
Na'ankure kinama hurante'naza vahe'mo'za tagrikura, zagame nehinketa antahisune hu'za kazikazi hu'naze. Tatama tami'za tazeri havizama nehaza vahe'mo'za hu'za Saioni agonamofo agirevare zagamera nehinketa musena hamneno hu'za tutu hu'naze.
4 But [we thought], “We [are sad because we have been punished by Yahweh and brought to this] foreign land, so we cannot [RHQ] sing songs about Yahweh while we are here!”
Ana hianagi ru vahe mopafima emani'nonana inankna huta Ra Anumzamofo zagamera hugahune?
5 If I forget about Jerusalem [APO], Iet my right hand wither [with the result that I will be unable to play my harp]
Nagrama Jerusalemi kuma'mokagu'ma nagane'ma kanisugeno'a, naza tamaga'amo'ma eri'zama e'neria eri'zana mago'enena e'origahie.
6 Do not allow me to sing again [MTY], if I forget about Jerusalem, if I do not consider that Jerusalem causes me to be more joyful than anything else does.
Nagrama Jerusalemi kuma'mokagu'ma nagane'ma nekani'na, Jerusalemi kuma'mokagu'ma ugota musezani'a mani'nane hu'nama osanugeno'a, nagefunamo'a marerino navagu'nafare ome rukamaresie.
7 Yahweh, [punish] the people of the Edom people-group for what they did on the day that the army of Babylon captured Jerusalem. Do not forget that they said, “Tear down all the buildings! Destroy them completely! Leave only the foundations!”
Babiloni vahe'mo'zama Jerusalemi kuma'ma ha'ma eme hunte'za eri'za zupama, Idomu vahe'mo'za hu'za, Jerusalemi kumara maka tapage tapagu hutrenkeno havizantfa hinoma hu'za kezama ati'naza zankura, Ra Anumzamoka kaganera okanio.
8 And you people of Babylon, you will certainly be destroyed! Those who punish you in return for what you did to us will be happy;
Babiloni kuma'moka havizantfa hugahananki kagesa antahio. Tagrite'ma hurante'nana avu'ava zante'ma, nonama hugantesia vahe'mo'a muse hugahie.
9 they will take your babies and completely smash them on the rocks.
Ana'ma hania vahe'mo'a Babiloni kuma'moka ne'onse mofavre nagaka'a zamazeriteno, haveraminte ruhapakopatino zmahegahie.
