Psalms 137: (KJV)
|
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.
