For David, a Psalm of Jeremias. By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat; and wept when we remembered Sion.

Дави́ду Ієремі́ємъ.

²

We hung our harps on the willows in the midst of it.

¹

На рѣка́хъ Вавило́нскихъ, та́мо сѣдо́хомъ и пла́кахомъ, внегда́ помяну́ти на́мъ Сіо́на:

³

For there they that had taken us captive asked of us the words of a song; and they that had carried us away asked a hymn, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Sion.

²

на ве́рбіихъ посредѣ́ єго́ обѣ́сихомъ орга́ны на́шя.

⁴

How should we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?

³

Я́ко та́мо вопроси́ша ны́ плѣ́ншіи на́съ о словесѣ́хъ пѣ́сней, и ве́дшіи на́съ о пѣ́ніи: воспо́йте на́мъ от пѣ́сней Сіо́нскихъ.

⁸

Wretched daughter of Babylon! blessed shall he be who shall reward thee as thou hast rewarded us.

⁷

Помяни́, Го́споди, сы́ны Єдо́мскія въ де́нь Ієрусали́мль глаго́лющыя: истоща́йте, истоща́йте до основа́ній єго́.

⁹

Blessed shall he be who shall seize and dash thine infants against the rock.

⁸

Дщи́ Вавило́ня окая́нная, блаже́нъ, и́же возда́стъ тебѣ́ воздая́ніє твоє́, є́же воздала́ єси́ на́мъ:
