Psalms:137

Seeker Overlay ON

* By the rivers of Babylon , There we sat down , yea , we wept When we remembered Zion . * We hung our harps Upon the willows in the midst of it . * For there those who carried us away captive asked of us a song , And those who plundered us requested mirth , Saying , "Sing us one of the songs of Zion !" * How shall we sing the LORD 's song In a foreign land ? * If I forget you , O Jerusalem , Let my right hand forget its skill ! * If I do not remember you , Let my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth -- If I do not exalt Jerusalem Above my chief joy . * Remember , O LORD , against the sons of Edom The day of Jerusalem , Who said , "Raze it , raze it , To its very foundation !" * O daughter of Babylon , who are to be destroyed , Happy the one who repays you as you have served us ! * Happy the one who takes and dashes Your little ones against the rock !
