< Psalms 137 >
1 By rivers of Babylon — There we did sit, Yea, we wept when we remembered Zion.
Ke kut muta sisken infacl Babylon, Kut tung we ke kut esamak Zion.
2 On willows in its midst we hung our harps.
Kut srupusrak harp natusr Ulun sak willow su tu siskasr.
3 For there our captors asked us the words of a song, And our spoilers — joy: 'Sing ye to us of a song 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 do we sing the song of Jehovah, On the land of a stranger?
Kut ac on fuka soko on nu sin LEUM GOD In sie facl sac?
5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, my right hand forgetteth!
Lela tuh nga in tia sifil ku in srital ke harp Nga fin mulkinkomla, Jerusalem!
6 My tongue doth cleave to my palate, If I do not remember thee, If I do not exalt Jerusalem above my chief joy.
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, Jehovah, for the sons of Edom, The day of Jerusalem, Those saying, 'Rase, rase to its foundation!'
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 daughter of Babylon, O destroyed one, O the happiness of him who repayeth to thee thy deed, That thou hast done to us.
Babylon, kom ac fah kunausyukla. Insewowo elos su fah folokin nu sum Ma kom tuh oru nu sesr —
9 O the happiness of him who doth seize, And hath dashed thy sucklings on the rock!
Su ac fah eisla tulik fusr nutuwos Ac sakunulos fin eot uh.
