Psalms
Chapitre 137
1
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down.
Yes, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
2
On the willows in that land,
we hung up our harps.
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!”
4
How can we sing Yahweh’s song in a foreign land?
5
If I forget you, Jerusalem,
let my right hand forget its skill.
6
Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I don’t remember you,
if I don’t prefer Jerusalem above my chief joy.
7
Remember, Yahweh, against the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem,
who said, “Raze it!
Raze it even to its foundation!”
8
Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction,
he will be happy who repays you,
as you have done to us.
9
Happy shall he be,
who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock.

Chapitre 137
1
By the rivers of Babylon,
There we sat down, yea, we wept,
When we remembered Zion.
2
Upon the willows in the midst thereof
We hanged up our harps.
3
For there they that led us captive required of us songs,
And they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying,
Sing us one of the songs of Zion.
4
How shall we sing Jehovah’s song
In a foreign land?
5
If I forget thee, O Jerusalem,
Let my right hand forget her skill.
6
Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth,
If I remember thee not;
If I prefer not Jerusalem
Above my chief joy.
7
Remember, O Jehovah, against the children of Edom
The day of Jerusalem;
Who said, Rase it, rase it,
Even to the foundation thereof.
8
O daughter of Babylon, that art to be destroyed,
Happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee
As thou hast served us.
9
Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones
Against the rock.
