Psalm 136

|
| Τῷ Δαυΐδ ῾Ιερεμίου. ΕΠΙ τῶν ποταμῶν Βαβυλῶνος ἐκεῖ ἐκαθίσαμεν καὶ ἐκλαύσαμεν ἐν τῷ μνησθῆναι ἡμᾶς τῆς Σιών. | For David, a Psalm of Jeremias. By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat; and wept when we remembered Sion. |
|

|
| ἐπὶ ταῖς ἰτέαις ἐν μέσῳ αὐτῆς ἐκρεμάσαμεν τὰ ὄργανα ἡμῶν· | We hung our harps on the willows in the midst of it. |
|

|
| ὅτι ἐκεῖ ἐπηρώτησαν ἡμᾶς οἱ αἰχμαλωτεύσαντες ἡμᾶς λόγους ᾠδῶν καὶ οἱ ἀπαγαγόντες ἡμᾶς ὕμνον· ᾄσατε ἡμῖν ἐκ τῶν ᾠδῶν Σιών. | 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. |

|
| πῶς ᾄσωμεν τὴν ᾠδὴν Κυρίου ἐπὶ γῆς ἀλλοτρίας; | How should we sing the Lord's song in a strange land? |

|
| ἐὰν ἐπιλάθωμαί σου, ῾Ιερουσαλήμ, ἐπιλησθείη ἡ δεξιά μου· | If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill. |
|

|
| κολληθείη ἡ γλῶσσά μου τῷ λάρυγγί μου, ἐὰν μή σου μνησθῶ, ἐὰν μὴ προανατάξωμαι τὴν ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ ὡς ἐν ἀρχῇ τῆς εὐφροσύνης μου. | May my tongue cleave to my throat, if I do not remember thee; if I do not prefer Jerusalem as the chief of my joy. |

|
| μνήσθητι, Κύριε, τῶν υἱῶν ᾿Εδὼμ τὴν ἡμέραν ῾Ιερουσαλὴμ τῶν λεγόντων· ἐκκενοῦτε, ἐκκενοῦτε, ἕως τῶν θεμελίων αὐτῆς. | Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to its foundations. |

|
| θυγάτηρ Βαβυλῶνος ἡ ταλαίπωρος, μακάριος ὃς ἀνταποδώσει σοι τὸ ἀνταπόδομά σου, ὃ ἀνταπέδωκας ἡμῖν· | Wretched daughter of Babylon! blessed shall he be who shall reward thee as thou hast rewarded us. |

| μακάριος ὃς κρατήσει καὶ ἐδαφιεῖ τὰ νήπιά σου πρὸς τὴν πέτραν. | Blessed shall he be who shall seize and dash thine infants against the rock. |
