SEV Biblia, Chapter 137:8

Hija de Babilonia destruida, dichoso el que te diere tu pago, que nos pagaste a nosotros.

Clarke's Bible Commentary - Psalms 136:8

Verse 8. O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed ] Or, O thou daughter of Babylon the destroyer, or, who art to be ruined. In being reduced under the empire of the Persians, Babylon was already greatly humbled and brought low from what it was in the days of Nebuchadnezzar; but it was afterwards so totally ruined that not a vestige of it remains. After its capture by Cyrus, A.M. 3468, it could never be considered a capital city; but it appeared to follow the fortunes of its various conquerors till it was, as a city, finally destroyed.

Rewardeth thee as thou hast served us. ] This was Cyrus, who was chosen of God to do this work, and is therefore called happy, as being God's agent in its destruction. Greater desolations were afterwards brought upon it by Darius Hystaspes, who took this city after it had revolted, and slaughtered the inhabitants, men and women, in a barbarous manner. Herod. lib. iii.

Matthew Henry Commentary

Verses 5-9 - What we love, we love to think of. Those that rejoice in God, for his sake make Jerusalem their joy. They stedfastly resolved to keep up thi affection. When suffering, we should recollect with godly sorrow ou forfeited mercies, and our sins by which we lost them. If tempora advantages ever render a profession, the worst calamity has befalle him. Far be it from us to avenge ourselves; we will leave it to Him wh has said, Vengeance is mine. Those that are glad at calamities especially at the calamities of Jerusalem, shall not go unpunished. We cannot pray for promised success to the church of God without lookin to, though we do not utter a prayer for, the ruin of her enemies. But let us call to mind to whose grace and finished salvation alone it is that we have any hopes of being brought home to the heavenly Jerusalem __________________________________________________________________
