< Saame 137 >
1 Naʻa mau nofo ki lalo ʻi he veʻe vaitafe ʻo Papilone, ʻio, naʻa mau tangi ʻi heʻemau manatu ki Saione.
我們曾在巴比倫的河邊坐下, 一追想錫安就哭了。
2 Naʻa mau tautau ʻemau ngaahi haʻape, ʻi he ngaahi uilou ʻi he lotolotonga ʻo ia.
我們把琴掛在那裏的柳樹上;
3 He naʻe fekauʻi ai ʻekinautolu naʻa nau fakapōpulaʻi ʻakimautolu ke mau hiva; pea ko kinautolu naʻe fakaʻosiʻosi ʻakimautolu naʻa nau fekau ke mau fiefia, ʻonau pehē, “Hiva mai kiate kimautolu ʻi he ngaahi hiva ʻo Saione.”
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 ʻE fēfē ʻemau hiva ʻaki ʻae hiva ʻa Sihova ʻi he fonua ʻoe muli?
我們怎能在外邦唱耶和華的歌呢?
5 Kapau te u fakangalongaloʻi koe, ʻE Selūsalema, tuku ke ngalo ʻi hoku nima toʻomataʻu hono faiva.
耶路撒冷啊,我若忘記你, 情願我的右手忘記技巧!
6 Kapau ʻe ʻikai te u manatu kiate koe, tuku ke pikitai ʻa hoku ʻelelo ki hoku ʻaoʻingutu; ʻo kapau ʻe ʻikai te u hiki māʻolunga hake ʻa Selūsalema ʻi hoku fungani fiefiaʻanga.
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 Manatu, ʻE Sihova, ki he fānau ʻa ʻItomi, ʻi he ʻaho ʻo Selūsalema; naʻa nau pehē, “Fakaʻauha ia! Fakaʻauha ia, ʻo aʻu ki hono tuʻunga!”
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 ʻE ʻofefine ʻo Papilone, ʻe fakaʻauha koe; ʻe monūʻia ia, ʻaia te ne totongi kiate koe, ʻo hangē ko hoʻo fai kiate kimautolu.
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 ʻE monūʻia ia, ʻaia te ne toʻo ʻo laiki hoʻo fānau iiki ki he maka.
拿你的嬰孩摔在磐石上的, 那人便為有福!
