1By the rivers of Babylon we sat and wept when we remembered Zion.
1Babylon vapui taengah, kang hnut o, ue, Zion to ka poek o naah, ka qah o.
2There on the willows we hung our harps,
2Katoengnawk doeh tui taeng ih thing tanghang nuiah ka bang o.
3for there our captors requested a song; our tormentors demanded songs of joy: “Sing us a song of Zion.”
3To ah kaom kaicae misong ah naeh kaminawk mah laasak hanah ang pacae o; kaicae pacaekthlaek kaminawk mah anghoehaih laasak hanah ang pacae o; Zion laa maeto sah o noek khae, tiah ang naa o.
4How can we sing a song of the LORD in a foreign land?
4Kawbangmaw Angraeng ih laa to minawk prae ah ka sah o thai tih?
5If I forget you, O Jerusalem, may my right hand cease to function.
5Aw Jerusalem, nang to kang pahnet o ving nahaeloe, ka bantang ban mah a sakthaihaih to pahnet roep nasoe.
6May 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!
6Nang to kang panoek o ai boeh moe, kang hoe o haih koek Jerusalem to ka pakoeh o ai boeh nahaeloe, ka palai hae pakha ranuiah angbet caeng nasoe.
7Remember, O LORD, the sons of Edom on the day Jerusalem fell: “Destroy it,” they said, “tear it down to its foundations!”
7Aw Angraeng, Jerusalem amtimh na niah, im hmuen to phrae oh, phrae oh, tiah kathui Edom kaminawk to poek ah.
8O Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, blessed is he who repays you as you have done to us.
8Amrosak thaih, Aw Babylon canu, kaicae nuiah na sak ih hmuen baktih toengah, na nuiah sah pathok kami loe tahamhoih.
9Blessed is he who seizes your infants and dashes them against the rocks.
9Na caa nawktanawk to lak moe, thlung nuiah va kami loe tahamhoih.
