اَلْمَزَامِيرُ 137
| عَلَى أَنْهَارِ بَابِلَ هُنَاكَ جَلَسْنَا، بَكَيْنَا أَيْضًا عِنْدَمَا تَذَكَّرْنَا صِهْيَوْنَ. | ١ 1 |
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
| عَلَى ٱلصَّفْصَافِ فِي وَسَطِهَا عَلَّقْنَا أَعْوَادَنَا. | ٢ 2 |
We hung our harps upon the willows in its midst.
| لِأَنَّهُ هُنَاكَ سَأَلَنَا ٱلَّذِينَ سَبَوْنَا كَلَامَ تَرْنِيمَةٍ، وَمُعَذِّبُونَا سَأَلُونَا فَرَحًا قَائِلِينَ: «رَنِّمُوا لَنَا مِنْ تَرْنِيمَاتِ صِهْيَوْنَ». | ٣ 3 |
For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.
| كَيْفَ نُرَنِّمُ تَرْنِيمَةَ ٱلرَّبِّ فِي أَرْضٍ غَرِيبَةٍ؟ | ٤ 4 |
How shall we sing the LORD’S song in a foreign land?
| إِنْ نَسِيتُكِ يَا أُورُشَلِيمُ، تَنْسَى يَمِينِي! | ٥ 5 |
If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her skill.
| لِيَلْتَصِقْ لِسَانِي بِحَنَكِي إِنْ لَمْ أَذْكُرْكِ، إِنْ لَمْ أُفَضِّلْ أُورُشَلِيمَ عَلَى أَعْظَمِ فَرَحِي! | ٦ 6 |
If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
| اُذْكُرْ يَارَبُّ لِبَنِي أَدُومَ يَوْمَ أُورُشَلِيمَ، ٱلْقَائِلِينَ: «هُدُّوا، هُدُّوا حَتَّى إِلَى أَسَاسِهَا». | ٧ 7 |
Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to its foundation
| يَابِنْتَ بَابِلَ ٱلْمُخْرَبَةَ، طُوبَى لِمَنْ يُجَازِيكِ جَزَاءَكِ ٱلَّذِي جَازَيْتِنَا! | ٨ 8 |
O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
| طُوبَى لِمَنْ يُمْسِكُ أَطْفَالَكِ وَيَضْرِبُ بِهِمُ ٱلصَّخْرَةَ! | ٩ 9 |
Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
