Salmo 137
Ang Salita ng Dios (Tagalog Contemporary Bible)
Ang Panaghoy ng mga Taga-Israel nang Silaʼy Nabihag
137 Nang maalala namin ang Zion, umupo kami sa pampang ng mga ilog ng Babilonia at umiyak.
2 Isinabit na lang namin ang aming mga alpa sa mga sanga ng kahoy.
3 Pinaaawit kami ng mga bumihag sa amin.
Inuutusan nila kaming sila ay aliwin.
Ang sabi nila,
“Awitan ninyo kami ng mga awit tungkol sa Zion!”
4 Ngunit paano kami makakaawit ng awit ng Panginoon sa lupain ng mga bumihag sa amin?
5 Sanaʼy hindi na gumalaw ang kanan kong kamay kung kalilimutan ko ang Jerusalem!
6 Sanaʼy maging pipi ako kung hindi ko aalalahanin at ituturing na malaking kasiyahan ang Jerusalem.
7 Panginoon, alalahanin nʼyo ang ginawa ng mga taga-Edom nang lupigin ng Babilonia ang Jerusalem.
Sinabi nila,
“Sirain ninyo ito at wasakin nang lubos!”
8 Kayong mga taga-Babilonia, kayoʼy wawasakin!
Mapalad ang mga taong lilipol sa inyo gaya ng ginawa ninyong paglipol sa amin.
9 Mapalad silang kukuha ng inyong mga sanggol,
at ihahampas sa mga bato.

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.

Psalm 137
New King James Version
Longing for Zion in a Foreign Land
137 By the rivers of Babylon,
There we sat down, yea, we wept
When we remembered Zion.
2 We hung our harps
Upon the willows in the midst of it.
3 For there those who carried us away captive asked of us a song,
And those who (A)plundered us requested mirth,
Saying, “Sing us one of the songs of Zion!”
4 How shall we sing the Lord’s song
In a foreign land?
5 If I forget you, O Jerusalem,
Let my right hand forget its skill!
6 If I do not remember you,
Let my (B)tongue cling to the roof of my mouth—
If I do not exalt Jerusalem
Above my chief joy.
7 Remember, O Lord, against (C)the sons of Edom
The day of Jerusalem,
Who said, [a]“Raze it, raze it,
To its very foundation!”
8 O daughter of Babylon, (D)who are to be destroyed,
Happy the one (E)who repays you as you have served us!
9 Happy the one who takes and (F)dashes
Your little ones against the rock!
