Psalms 137

1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down. Yes, we wept, when we remembered Zion.

Waxaannu ag fadhiisannay webiyaashii Baabuloon, Oo waannu ooynay markii aannu Siyoon soo xusuusannay.

2 On the willows in that land, we hung up our harps.

Oo waxaannu kataaradahayagii sudhannay geedaha safsaafkaa.

3 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!”

Waayo, kuwii maxaabiis ahaanta noo watay ayaa halkaas gabayo nagu weyddiistay, Oo kuwii na silciyey ayaa farxad na weyddiistay, oo waxay nagu yidhaahdeen, Noogu gabya gabayadii Siyoon midkood.

4 How can we sing the LORD’s song in a foreign land?

Bal sidee baannu gabaygii Rabbiga ugu gabaynaa Dal qalaad dhexdiis?

5 If I forget you, Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill.

Yeruusaalemay, haddaan ku illoobo, Gacantayda midig ha illowdo sancadeedii.

6 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.

Carrabkayguna ha ku dhego dhanxanagga afkayga, Haddaanan ku xusuusan, Iyo haddaanan Yeruusaalem ka sii jeclaan Farxaddayda ugu weyn.

7 Remember, LORD, against the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem, who said, “Raze it! Raze it even to its foundation!”

Rabbiyow, soo xusuuso reer Edom, Kuwaasoo maalintii Yeruusaalem yidhi, Dumiya, dumiya, tan iyo aasaaskeeda.

8 Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, he will be happy who repays you, as you have done to us.

Gabadha Baabuloonay, waa lagu baabbi'in doonaa, Waxaa faraxsanaan doona kii kaa abaalmariya Sidii aad nagu samaysay.

9 Happy shall he be, who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock.

Waxaa faraxsanaan doona kii dhallaankaaga qabsada Oo dhagaxa weyn ku dul tuura.
