1Give ye thanks unto Jehovah, for he is good; for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever:
1Upon the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept: when we remembered Sion:
2 Give thanks unto theGod ofgods, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;
2On the willows in the midst thereof we hung up our instruments.
3 Give thanks unto the Lord of lords, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever.
3For there they that led us into captivity required of us the words of songs. And they that carried us away, said: Sing ye to us a hymn of the songs of Sion.
4 To him who alone doeth great wonders, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever:
4How shall we sing the song of the Lord in a strange land?
5 To him that by understanding made the heavens, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;
5If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten.
6 To him that stretched out the earth above the waters, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;
6Let my tongue cleave to my jaws, if I do not remember thee: If I make not Jerusalem the beginning of my joy.
7 To him that made great lights, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever;
7Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom, in the day of Jerusalem: Who say: Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
8 The sun for rule over the day, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,
8O daughter of Babylon, miserable: blessed shall he be who shall repay thee thy payment which thou hast paid us.
9 The moon and stars for rule over the night, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever:
9Blessed be he that shall take and dash thy little ones against the rock.
10 To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn, for his loving-kindness [endureth] for ever,
