1Give ye thanks to Jehovah, For good, for to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
1Upon the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept: when we remembered Sion:
2Give ye thanks to the God of gods, For to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
2On the willows in the midst thereof we hung up our instruments.
3Give ye thanks to the Lord of lords, For to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
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.
4To Him doing great wonders by Himself alone, For to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
4How shall we sing the song of the Lord in a strange land?
5To Him making the heavens by understanding, For to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
5If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten.
6To Him spreading the earth over the waters, For to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
6Let my tongue cleave to my jaws, if I do not remember thee: If I make not Jerusalem the beginning of my joy.
7To Him making great lights, For to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
7Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom, in the day of Jerusalem: Who say: Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
8The sun to rule by day, For to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
8O daughter of Babylon, miserable: blessed shall he be who shall repay thee thy payment which thou hast paid us.
9The moon and stars to rule by night, For to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
9Blessed be he that shall take and dash thy little ones against the rock.
10To Him smiting Egypt in their first-born, For to the age <FI>is<Fi> His kindness.
