Psalm 137
| 1 | 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 LORD'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 LORD, 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. |
