137:1 By the rivers of Babylon, There we sat down, yes, we wept, When we remembered Zion.
137:2 On the willows in the midst of it We hung up our harps. 137:3 For there those who led us captive required of us songs, And those who wasted us [required of us] mirth, [saying] Sing us one of the songs of Zion. 137:4 How shall we sing Yahweh's song In a foreign land? 137:5 If I forget you, O Jerusalem, Let my right hand forget [her skill]. 137:6 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. 137:7 Remember, O Yahweh, against the sons of Edom The day of Jerusalem; Who said, Raze it, raze it, Even to its foundation. 137:8 O daughter of Babylon, who are to be destroyed, Happy he will be, who rewards you As you have served us. 137:9 Happy he will be, who takes and dashes your little ones Against the rock. |
