1我們曾在坐下,一追想錫安就哭了。By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept when we remembered Zion.
2我們把琴掛在那裡的上;There on the willows we hung our harps,
3因為在那裡,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!for there our captors requested a song; our tormentors demanded songs of joy: “Sing us a song of Zion.”
4我們怎能在外邦唱耶和華的歌呢?How can we sing a song of the LORD in a foreign land?
5耶路撒冷啊,我若忘記你,情願我的右手忘記!If I forget you, O Jerusalem, may my right hand cease to function.
6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!May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you, if I do not exalt Jerusalem as my greatest joy!
7耶路撒冷遭難的日子,說:拆毀!拆毀!直拆到根基!耶和華啊,求你記念這仇!Remember, O LORD, the sons of Edom on the day Jerusalem fell: “Destroy it,” they said, “tear it down to its foundations!”
8將要被滅的巴比倫城啊(城:原文是女子),報復你像你待我們的,那人便為有福!O Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, blessed is he who repays you as you have done to us.
9拿你的嬰孩的,那人便為有福!Blessed is he who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks.
