without announcing his text,不再宣读他的文本 -
into the 137th Psalm.而是念起了圣经第137章 -
And he simply reads:他读道 -
"By the rivers of Babylon there we sat down."我们坐在巴比伦河畔 -
Yea, we wept when we remembered Zion.想起锡安就忍不住哭起来 -
We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof,在河边的柳树上我们挂起了竖琴 -
for there they that carried us away captive required of us a song,俘虏我们的人要我们唱歌 -
and they who wasted us required of us mirth,折磨我们的人要我们欢娱他们 -
saying 'sing us one of the songs of Zion.'他们说 '来为我们唱一曲锡安的歌' -
How can we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?身处外邦异国 怎能唱颂赞上主的歌呢 -
If I forget thee O Jerusalem,如果我忘记了你 耶路撒冷 -
let my right hand forget her cunning,愿我的右手枯萎 再也不能弹琴
