Psalm 137

1 Ke kut muta sisken infacl Babylon, Kut tung we ke kut esamak Zion.

Upon the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept: when we remembered Sion:

2 Kut srupusrak harp natusr Ulun sak willow su tu siskasr.

On the willows in the midst thereof we hung up our instruments.

3 Elos su sruokkuti elos sap kut in on; Elos sap kut in akpwaryalos, Ac fahk, “Yuk soko on ke acn Zion kut in lohng.”

For there they that led us into captivity required of us the words of songs. And they that carried us away, said: Sing ye to us a hymn of the songs of Sion.

4 Kut ac on fuka soko on nu sin LEUM GOD In sie facl sac?

How shall we sing the song of the Lord in a strange land?

5 Lela tuh nga in tia sifil ku in srital ke harp Nga fin mulkinkomla, Jerusalem!

If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten.

6 Lela nga in tia sifil ku in on Nga fin tia esam kom, Nga fin tia nunku mu kom pa mwe insewowo yohk emeet luk uh!

Let my tongue cleave to my jaws, if I do not remember thee: If I make not Jerusalem the beginning of my joy.

7 O LEUM GOD, esam ma mwet Edom elos tuh oru Ke len se sruhu acn Jerusalem. Esam lah elos tuh fahk, “Sukella! Sukella nwe ke musalsalu fin fohk uh!”

Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom, in the day of Jerusalem: Who say: Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.

8 Babylon, kom ac fah kunausyukla. Insewowo elos su fah folokin nu sum Ma kom tuh oru nu sesr —

O daughter of Babylon, miserable: blessed shall he be who shall repay thee thy payment which thou hast paid us.

9 Su ac fah eisla tulik fusr nutuwos Ac sakunulos fin eot uh.

Blessed be he that shall take and dash thy little ones against the rock.
