chapter_Psalm_137
Psalm 137:1: By rivers of Babylon &#8212; There we did sit, Yea, we wept when we remembered Zion. Psalm 137:2: On willows in its midst we hung our harps. Psalm 137:3: For there our captors asked us the words of a song, And our spoilers &#8212; joy: 'Sing ye to us of a song of Zion.' Psalm 137:4: How do we sing the song of Jehovah, On the land of a stranger? Psalm 137:5: If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, my right hand forgetteth! Psalm 137:6: My tongue doth cleave to my palate, If I do not remember thee, If I do not exalt Jerusalem above my chief joy. Psalm 137:7: Remember, Jehovah, for the sons of Edom, The day of Jerusalem, Those saying, 'Rase, rase to its foundation!' Psalm 137:8: O daughter of Babylon, O destroyed one, O the happiness of him who repayeth to thee thy deed, That thou hast done to us. Psalm 137:9: O the happiness of him who doth seize, And hath dashed thy sucklings on the rock!
