< Dagiti Salmo 137 >
1 Iti igid dagiti karayan ti Babilonia, nagtugaw ken nagsangsangitkami idi napanunotmi ti maipanggep iti Sion.
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down. Yes, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
2 Kadagiti kayo ti karawawe, insab-itmi sadiay dagiti arpami.
On the willows in its midst, we hung up our harps.
3 Dagiti nangtiliw kadakami sadiay kayatda nga agkantakami, ken dagiti nanglalais kadakami kayatda nga agragsakkami, a kunada, “Kantaandakami iti maysa kadagiti kanta ti Sion.”
For there, those who led us captive asked us for songs. Those who tormented us demanded songs of joy: "Sing us one of the songs of Zion."
4 Kasanokami a makakanta iti saniweng maipapan kenni Yahweh iti ganggannaet a daga?
How can we sing the LORD's song in a foreign land?
5 No iyaleng-alengko ti pakalaglagipan kenka, O Jerusalem, malipatan koma ti makannawan nga imak ti laingna.
If I forget you, Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten.
6 Dumket koma ti dilak iti ngaresko no saankan a panunoten ni kaanoman, no saanen a ti Jerusalem ti imbilangko a naindaklan a pakaragsakak.
Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you; if I do not prefer Jerusalem above my chief joy.
7 Lagipem, O Yahweh ti inaramid dagiti Edomita iti aldaw a narba ti Jerusalem. Kinunada, “Rebbaenyo, rebbaenyo aginggana kadagiti adigina.”
Remember, LORD, against the descendants of Edom, the day of Jerusalem; who said, "Raze it. Raze it even to its foundation."
8 Anak a babai ti Babilonia, nga asidegen a madadael – mabendisionan koma ti tao, ti siasinoman a mangibales kenka iti inaramidmo kadakami.
Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, he will be blessed who rewards you, as you have served us.
9 Mabendisionan koma ti tao, ti siasinoman a mangala ken mangibaot kadagiti ubbingmo iti dakkel a bato.
Blessed shall he be who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock.
