Bible Mutal (Kosraean)
1By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
1Ke kut muta sisken infacl Babylon, Kut tung we ke kut esamak Zion.
2Upon the willows in the midst thereof we hanged up our harps.
2Kut srupusrak harp natusr Ulun sak willow su tu siskasr.
3For there they that led us captive asked of us words of song, and our tormentors asked of us mirth: 'Sing us one of the songs of Zion.'
3Elos su sruokkuti elos sap kut in on; Elos sap kut in akpwaryalos, Ac fahk, “Yuk soko on ke acn Zion kut in lohng.”
4How shall we sing the LORD'S song in a foreign land?
4Kut ac on fuka soko on nu sin LEUM GOD In sie facl sac?
5If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
5Lela tuh nga in tia sifil ku in srital ke harp Nga fin mulkinkomla, Jerusalem!
6Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I remember thee not; if I set not Jerusalem above my chiefest joy.
6Lela 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!
7Remember, O LORD, against the children of Edom the day of Jerusalem; who said: 'Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.'
7O 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!”
8O daughter of Babylon, that art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that repayeth thee as thou hast served us.
8Babylon, kom ac fah kunausyukla. Insewowo elos su fah folokin nu sum Ma kom tuh oru nu sesr —
9Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the rock.
9Su ac fah eisla tulik fusr nutuwos Ac sakunulos fin eot uh.
