| Psalms 137: (ASV) |
| 1) By the rivers of Babylon, There we sat down, yea, we wept, When we remembered Zion. |
| 2) Upon the willows in the midst thereof We hanged up our harps. |
| 3) For there they that led us captive required of us songs, And they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion. |
| 4) How shall we sing Jehovah's song In a foreign land? |
| 5) If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, Let my right hand forget her skill. |
| 6) Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, If I remember thee not; If I prefer not Jerusalem Above my chief joy. |
| 7) Remember, O Jehovah, against the children of Edom The day of Jerusalem; Who said, Rase it, rase it, Even to the foundation thereof. |
| 8) O daughter of Babylon, that 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 rock. |
