King James Version with ApocryphaTranslation
King James Version with Apocrypha
Douay-Rheims Bible, American Edition (1899)
1O give thanks unto the LORD ; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.
1Upon the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept: when we remembered Sion:
2O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever.
2On the willows in the midst thereof we hung up our instruments.
3O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.
3For 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.
4To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.
4How shall we sing the song of the Lord in a strange land?
5To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever.
5If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten.
6To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.
6Let my tongue cleave to my jaws, if I do not remember thee: If I make not Jerusalem the beginning of my joy.
7To him that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever:
7Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom, in the day of Jerusalem: Who say: Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
8The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever:
8O daughter of Babylon, miserable: blessed shall he be who shall repay thee thy payment which thou hast paid us.
9The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever.
9Blessed be he that shall take and dash thy little ones against the rock.
10To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy endureth for ever:
