:
1
Psalms 137:1
chevron_left
chevron_right
By the rivers
of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
2
We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
3
For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us
required of us
mirth,
saying
, Sing us
one
of the songs of Zion.
4
How shall we sing the
L
ORD
’s song in a strange land?
5
If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget
her cunning
.
6
If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
7
Remember, O
L
ORD
, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase
it
, rase
it, even
to the foundation thereof.
8
O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy
shall he be
, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
9
Happy
shall he be
, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
