اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 137

١ 1 عَلَى أَنْهَارِ بَابِلَ هُنَاكَ جَلَسْنَا، بَكَيْنَا أَيْضًا عِنْدَمَا تَذَكَّرْنَا صِهْيَوْنَ.

At [the] rivers of - Babylon there we sat also we wept when remembered we Zion.

٢ 2 عَلَى ٱلصَّفْصَافِ فِي وَسَطِهَا عَلَّقْنَا أَعْوَادَنَا.

On poplars in [the] midst of it we hung up harps our.

٣ 3 لِأَنَّهُ هُنَاكَ سَأَلَنَا ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَوْنَا كَلَامَ تَرْنِيمَةٍ، وَمُعَذِّبُونَا سَأَلُونَا فَرَحًا قَائِلِينَ: «رَنِّمُوا لَنَا مِنْ تَرْنِيمَاتِ صِهْيَوْنَ».

For there they asked us captors our words of a song and mockers our gladness sing for us one of [the] song[s] of Zion.

٤ 4 كَيْفَ نُرَنِّمُ تَرْنِيمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي أَرْضٍ غَرِيبَةٍ؟

How? will we sing [the] song of Yahweh on ground of foreignness.

٥ 5 إِنْ نَسِيتُكِ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ، تَنْسَى يَمِينِي!

If I will forget you O Jerusalem may it forget right [hand] my.

٦ 6 لِيَلْتَصِقْ لِسَانِي بِحَنَكِي إِنْ لَمْ أَذْكُرْكِ، إِنْ لَمْ أُفَضِّلْ أُورُشَلِيمَ عَلَى أَعْظَمِ فَرَحِي!

May it cleave tongue my - to palate my if not I will remember you if not I will lift up Jerusalem above [the] chief of joy my.

٧ 7 اُذْكُرْ يَارَبُّ لِبَنِي أَدُومَ يَوْمَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، ٱلْقَائِلِينَ: «هُدُّوا، هُدُّوا حَتَّى إِلَى أَسَاسِهَا».

Remember O Yahweh - to [the] people of Edom [the] day of Jerusalem who were saying lay bare - lay bare to the foundation in it.

٨ 8 يَابِنْتَ بَابِلَ ٱلْمُخْرَبَةَ، طُوبَى لِمَنْ يُجَازِيكِ جَزَاءَكِ ٱلَّذِي جَازَيْتِنَا!

O daughter of Babylon that is about to be destroyed how blessed! [is one] who he will repay to you dealing your that you dealt to us.

٩ 9 طُوبَى لِمَنْ يُمْسِكُ أَطْفَالَكِ وَيَضْرِبُ بِهِمُ ٱلصَّخْرَةَ!

How blessed! - [is one] who he will seize and he will smash children your to the rock.
