INdumiso 137:1-9
137 Ngasemilanjeni yaseBhabhiloni+—sahlala phantsi apho.+Salila sakuyikhumbula iZiyon.+
2 Emithini yemingcunube+ phakathi kwayoSazixhoma iihadi zethu.+
3 Kuba apho abo babesibambe njengabathinjwa bacela kuthi amazwi engoma,+Nabo babesenza intlekisa ngayo—ukuze babe nemihlali besithi:+“Sivumeleni enye yeengoma zaseZiyon.”+
4 Singathini na ukuvuma ingoma kaYehova+Emhlabeni wasemzini?+
5 Ukuba ndingakulibala, Yerusalem,+Masilibaleke isandla sam sasekunene.
6 Ulwimi lwam malunamathele enkalakahleni yam,+Ukuba andithanga ndikukhumbule,+Ukuba andithanga ndiyinyuse iYerusalemNgaphezu kwesizathu esikhulu sokuba nemihlali kwam.+
7 Khumbula,+ Yehova, ngokubhekisele koonyana bakaEdom+ imini yeYerusalem,+Abo babesithi: “Yihlubeni! Yihlubeni kuse kwisiseko esingaphakathi kwayo!”+
8 Ntombi yaseBhabhiloni, wena uza kuphangwa,+Uya kuba noyolo lowo uya kukuvuza+Ngempatho yakho owasiphatha ngayo.+
9 Uya kuba noyolo lowo ubamba aze abaqhekeze babe ziingceba+Abantwana bakho engxondorheni.
