Psalms 136

KING JAMES BIBLE	BIBBIA TINTORI
1 O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.	1 Sulle rive dei fiumi di Babilonia ci ponemmo a sedere e a piangere nel ricordarci di Sionne.
2 O give thanks unto the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever.	2 Ai salici che vi erano appendemmo le nostre cetre.
3 O give thanks to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.	3 Perchè là quelli che ci avevan menati schiavi ci chiedevano dei canti, quelli che ci avevan portati via: « Cantateci qualcuno dei cantici di Sion ».
4 To him who alone doeth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.	4 Come potremo cantare il cantico del Signore in terra straniera?
5 To him that by wisdom made the heavens: for his mercy endureth for ever.	5 Se io ti dimenticherò, o Gerusalemme, resti paralizzata la mia destra.
6 To him that stretched out the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.	6 Mi s'attacchi la lingua al palato se mi dimenticherò di te, se non porrò Gerusalemme al di sopra d'ogni mia gioia.
7 To him that made great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever:	7 O Signore, ricordati dei figli d'Edom, che nel giorno di Gerusalemme dicevano: « Spianatela, spianatela fino alle fondamenta ».
8 The sun to rule by day: for his mercy endureth for ever:	8 Infelice figlia di Babilonia, beato colui che ti tratterà come tu hai trattato noi!
9 The moon and stars to rule by night: for his mercy endureth for ever.	9 Beato chi afferrerà i tuoi bambini e li sbatterà contro le pietre.
10 To him that smote Egypt in their firstborn: for his mercy endureth for ever:
11 And brought out Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for ever:
12 With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm: for his mercy endureth for ever.
13 To him which divided the Red sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever:
14 And made Israel to pass through the midst of it: for his mercy endureth for ever:
15 But overthrew Pharaoh and his host in the Red sea: for his mercy endureth for ever.
16 To him which led his people through the wilderness: for his mercy endureth for ever.
17 To him which smote great kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
18 And slew famous kings: for his mercy endureth for ever:
19 Sihon king of the Amorites: for his mercy endureth for ever:
20 And Og the king of Bashan: for his mercy endureth for ever:
21 And gave their land for an heritage: for his mercy endureth for ever:
22 Even an heritage unto Israel his servant: for his mercy endureth for ever.
23 Who remembered us in our low estate: for his mercy endureth for ever:
24 And hath redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endureth for ever.
25 Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever.
26 O give thanks unto the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.
