Psalms 137
New American Standard Bible
1 By the rivers of Babylon, There we sat down and wept, When we remembered Zion.
2 Upon the willows in the midst of it We hung our harps.
3 For there our captors demanded of us songs, And our tormentors mirth, [saying], 'Sing us one of the songs of Zion.'
4 How can we sing the LORD'S song In a foreign land?
5 If I forget you, O Jerusalem, May my right hand forget [her skill].
6 May my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth If I do not remember you, If I do not exalt Jerusalem Above my chief joy.
7 Remember, O LORD, against the sons of Edom The day of Jerusalem, Who said, 'Raze it, raze it To its very foundation.'
8 O daughter of Babylon, you devastated one, How blessed will be the one who repays you With the recompense with which you have repaid us.
9 How blessed will be the one who seizes and dashes your little ones Against the rock.
