< Amahubo 137 >

1 Emifuleni yeBhabhiloni sahlala phansi khona, yebo sakhala inyembezi, lapho sikhumbula iZiyoni.
我們曾在巴比倫的河邊坐下, 一追想錫安就哭了。
2 Amachacho ethu sawaphanyeka eminyezaneni phakathi kwayo.
我們把琴掛在那裏的柳樹上;
3 Ngoba khonapho abasithumbayo basicela amazwi engoma, labasimotshayo bacela injabulo besithi: Sihlabeleleni enye yezingoma zeZiyoni.
因為在那裏,擄掠我們的要我們唱歌, 搶奪我們的要我們作樂,說: 給我們唱一首錫安歌吧!
4 Singahlabela njani ingoma yeNkosi elizweni lemzini?
我們怎能在外邦唱耶和華的歌呢?
5 Uba ngikukhohlwa, Jerusalema, isandla sami sokunene kasikhohlwe ubungcitshi.
耶路撒冷啊,我若忘記你, 情願我的右手忘記技巧!
6 Ulimi lwami kalunamathele elwangeni lwami, uba ngingakukhumbuli, uba ngingaphakamisi iJerusalema phezu kwentokozo yami enkulu.
我若不記念你, 若不看耶路撒冷過於我所最喜樂的, 情願我的舌頭貼於上膛!
7 Khumbula, Nkosi, ngabantwana bakoEdoma, ngosuku lweJerusalema, abathi: Dilizani, dilizani, kuze kube sesisekelweni sayo.
耶路撒冷遭難的日子, 以東人說:拆毀!拆毀! 直拆到根基! 耶和華啊,求你記念這仇!
8 Ndodakazi yeBhabhiloni, ozabhujiswa, ubusisiwe ozaphindisela kuwe isenzo osenze kithi.
將要被滅的巴比倫城啊, 報復你像你待我們的,那人便為有福!
9 Ubusisiwe ozabamba asakaze abantwana bakho edwaleni.
拿你的嬰孩摔在磐石上的, 那人便為有福!
