Lamento de los cautivos en Babilonia
137 Junto a los ríos de Babilonia,
Allí nos sentábamos, y aun llorábamos,
Acordándonos de Sion.
2 Sobre los sauces en medio de ella
Colgamos nuestras arpas.
3 Y los que nos habían llevado cautivos nos pedían que cantásemos,
Y los que nos habían desolado nos pedían alegría, diciendo:
Cantadnos algunos de los cánticos de Sion.
4 ¿Cómo cantaremos cántico de Jehová
En tierra de extraños?
5 Si me olvidare de ti, oh Jerusalén,
Pierda mi diestra su destreza.
6 Mi lengua se pegue a mi paladar,
Si de ti no me acordare;
Si no enalteciere a Jerusalén
Como preferente asunto de mi alegría.
7 Oh Jehová, recuerda contra los hijos de Edom el día de Jerusalén,
Cuando decían: Arrasadla, arrasadla
Hasta los cimientos.
8 Hija de Babilonia la desolada,
Bienaventurado el que te diere el pago
De lo que tú nos hiciste.(A)
9 Dichoso el que tomare y estrellare tus niños
Contra la peña.

Psalm 137
Complete Jewish Bible
137 By the rivers of Bavel we sat down and wept
as we remembered Tziyon.
2 We had hung up our lyres
on the willows that were there,
3 when those who had taken us captive
asked us to sing them a song;
our tormentors demanded joy from us —
“Sing us one of the songs from Tziyon!”
4 How can we sing a song about Adonai
here on foreign soil?
5 If I forget you, Yerushalayim,
may my right hand wither away!
6 May my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth
if I fail to remember you,
if I fail to count Yerushalayim
the greatest of all my joys.
7 Remember, Adonai, against the people of Edom
the day of Yerushalayim’s fall,
how they cried, “Tear it down! Tear it down!
Raze it to the ground!”
8 Daughter of Bavel, you will be destroyed!
A blessing on anyone who pays you back
for the way you treated us!
9 A blessing on anyone who seizes your babies
and smashes them against a rock!

Psalm 137
1 By the rivers of Babylon(A) we sat and wept(B)
when we remembered Zion.(C)
2 There on the poplars(D)
we hung our harps,(E)
3 for there our captors(F) asked us for songs,
our tormentors demanded(G) songs of joy;
they said, “Sing us one of the songs of Zion!”(H)
4 How can we sing the songs of the Lord(I)
while in a foreign land?
5 If I forget you,(J) Jerusalem,
may my right hand forget its skill.
6 May my tongue cling to the roof(K) of my mouth
if I do not remember(L) you,
if I do not consider Jerusalem(M)
my highest joy.
7 Remember, Lord, what the Edomites(N) did
on the day Jerusalem fell.(O)
“Tear it down,” they cried,
“tear it down to its foundations!”(P)
8 Daughter Babylon, doomed to destruction,(Q)
happy is the one who repays you
according to what you have done to us.
9 Happy is the one who seizes your infants
and dashes them(R) against the rocks.
