PSALMS ยท Chapter 137
137:1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when
we remembered Zion.
137:2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
137:3 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a
song; and they that wasted us required of us delight, saying, Sing us one
of the songs of Zion.
137:4 How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land?
137:5 If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
137:6 If I do not remember you, let my tongue cleave to the roof of
my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
137:7 Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem;
who said, Demolish it, demolish it, even to the foundation thereof.
137:8 O daughter of Babylon, who are to be destroyed; happy shall he
be, that rewards you as you have served us.
137:9 Happy shall he be, that takes and dashes your little ones against
the stones.
