Jerome's Latin Vulgate (405)
span data-lang="lat" data-trans="jvl" data-ref="psa.136.1" class="versetxt"> Psalmus David, Jeremiæ. [Super flumina Babylonis illic sedimus et flevimus,
cum recordaremur Sion.
In salicibus in medio ejus
suspendimus organa nostra:
quia illic interrogaverunt nos, qui captivos duxerunt nos,
verba cantionum;
et qui abduxerunt nos:
Hymnum cantate nobis de canticis Sion.
Quomodo cantabimus canticum Domini
in terra aliena?
Si oblitus fuero tui, Jerusalem,
oblivioni detur dextera mea.
Adhæreat lingua mea faucibus meis,
si non meminero tui;
si non proposuero Jerusalem
in principio lætitiæ meæ.
Memor esto, Domine, filiorum Edom,
in die Jerusalem:
qui dicunt: Exinanite, exinanite
usque ad fundamentum in ea.
Filia Babylonis misera! beatus qui retribuet tibi
retributionem tuam quam retribuisti nobis.
Beatus qui tenebit,
et allidet parvulos tuos ad petram.]

Gill's Notes on the Bible

With a strong hand, and with a stretched out arm,.... Exerting his power in a very open manner, and continuing it till he had effected the work; bringing his people out of Egypt, which is always ascribed to his great strength and mighty power, Exodus 13:3. The redemption of the mystical Israel of God is by a mighty Redeemer, the Lord of hosts; who has redeemed them out of the hands of their enemies, that were stronger than they, and too strong for them: the conversion of them is by the power of the grace of God, even by the exceeding greatness of his power, and yet both acts of grace and mercy;

for his mercy [endureth] for ever; it was mercy put the Lord on stretching out his arm, and showing the strength of his right hand, in delivering Israel out of Egypt; and in his love and in his pity he redeemed them, Isaiah 63:9. It is owing to the tender mercies of our God, and is a performing the mercy promised to the fathers, that Christ, the dayspring from on high, was sent to visit and redeem us, Luke 1:68; and the regeneration, quickening, and conversion of sinners, are acts of mercy as well as of power, Ephesians 2:4.

Barnes' Notes on the Bible

With a strong hand - A powerful hand; as by a hand that could grasp and subdue all that opposed.

And with a stretched-out arm - As if the arm were stretched out to strike with the utmost force, or to exert its utmost power. See Exodus 6:6; Deuteronomy 4:34; Deuteronomy 5:15; Deuteronomy 7:19; Deuteronomy 26:8; Jeremiah 32:21.

For his mercy ... - The exertion of his power in delivering his people was the expression of a mercy, the consequences of which are to endure forever, for the results of that deliverance will never cease in the history of the world; will never cease in heaven.
