聖詠集 |
Psalms |
1當我們坐在巴比倫河畔,一想起熙雍即淚流滿面。 |
1 By the rivers of Babylon we sat mourning and weeping when we remembered Zion. |
2在那地的楊柳間,掛起我們的琴絃。 |
2 On the poplars of that land we hung up our harps. |
3因那些俘虜我們的,要我們唱歌,那些迫害我們的,還要我們奏樂:快些來給我們唱一支熙雍的歌! |
3There our captors asked us for the words of a song; Our tormentors, for a joyful song: "Sing for us a song of Zion!" |
4但我們身處外鄉異域,怎能謳唱上主的歌曲? |
4But how could we sing a song of the LORD in a foreign land? |
5耶路撒冷!我如果將你忘掉,願我的右手枯焦! |
5If I forget you, Jerusalem, may my right hand wither. |
6我若不懷念你,不以耶路撒冷為喜樂,就寧願我的舌頭緊緊貼在我的上顎! |
6May my tongue stick to my palate if I do not remember you, If I do not exalt Jerusalem beyond all my delights. |
7上主,求你要記住厄東的子民,在耶路撒冷蒙難的時辰, 他們曾喊叫說:拆毀,拆毀!夷為平地,一直見到基礎, |
7Remember, LORD, against Edom that day at Jerusalem. They said: "Level it, level it down to its foundations!" |
8你這只知破壞的巴比倫女子!誰若依照你加給我們的災痍,也照樣報復於你,他就得福祺。 |
8Fair Babylon, you destroyer, happy those who pay you back the evil you have done us! |
9誰若抓起你的嬰兒幼子,摔在盤石上,他就得福祺! |
9 Happy those who seize your children and smash them against a rock. |
