King James Version with Apocrypha
Baibala Hemolele (Hawaiian Bible, 1868 revision)
1By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
1MA na muliwai o Babulona, malaila kakou i noho iho ai, A uwe aku la i ko kakou hoomanao ana ia Ziona.
2We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
2Ma na wilou maloko olaila, I kaulai ai makou i ko makou mea kani.
3For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying , Sing us one of the songs of Zion.
3No ka mea, malaila, noi mai ka poe i lawe pio ia makou, I na olelo o ke oli; A o ka poe hoinoino ia makou, noi mai lakou e lealea makou, I mai, E oli mai oukou i ka oli o Ziona.
4How shall we sing the LORD’s song in a strange land?
4Pehea la makou e oli ai i ka oli o Iehova, Ma ka aina malihini?
5If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning .
5Ina e hoopoina au ia oe, e Ierusalema, E poina pu no ko'u lima akua i ka hana,
6If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
6I ole au e hoomanao ia oe, E pipili hoi kuu aleio i ka aluna o ko'u waha; I ole hoi e kela aku ko'u makemake ia Ierusalema, Mamua o ko'u mea lealea mai.
7Remember, O LORD , the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it , rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
7E Iehova, e hoomanao oe i na keiki o Edoma, I ka la o Ierusalema; I ka poe i olelo mai, E wawahi, e wawahi, A ilalo i ke kumu ona.
8O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be , that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
8E ke kaikamahine o Babulona, ka mea e anaiia auanei, E pomaikai auanei ka mea hoopai aku ia oe, i ka hewa, Au i hana hewa mai ai ia makou.
9Happy shall he be , that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
9E pomaikai no hoi ka mea lalau aku i kau mau keiki, A ulupa ia lakou ilalo i na pohaku.
