Psalms:137
Seeker Overlay ON
*
By the rivers of Babylon ,
there we sat down ,
yes ,
we wept ,
when we remembered Zion .
*
We hanged our harps on the willows in the middle thereof .
*
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 .
*
How shall we sing the LORD '
song in a strange land ?
*
If I forget you ,
O Jerusalem ,
let my right hand forget her cunning .
*
If I do not remember you ,
let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth ;
if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy .
*
Remember ,
O LORD ,
the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem ;
who said ,
Raze it ,
raze it ,
even to the foundation thereof .
*
O daughter of Babylon ,
who are to be destroyed ;
happy shall he be ,
that rewards you as you have served us .
*
Happy shall he be ,
that takes and dashes your little ones against the stones .
