Psalms 137
1
By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down.
2
On the willows in that land,
3
For there, those who led us captive asked us for songs.
“Sing us one of the songs of Zion!” 4 How can we sing the LORD’s song in a foreign land? 5 If I forget you, Jerusalem,
let my right hand forget its skill. 6 Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I don’t remember you,
if I don’t prefer Jerusalem above my chief joy. 7 Remember, LORD, against the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem, 8 Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, 9 Happy shall he be,
who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock.
