English Standard Version
Psalms 137:1-7
1By the waters of Babylon, there we sat down and wept, when we remembered Zion.
2On the willows there we hung up our lyres.
3For there our captors required of us songs, and our tormentors, mirth, saying, "Sing us one of the songs of Zion!"
4How shall we sing the Lord's song in a foreign land?
5If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill!
6Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth, if I do not remember you, if I do not set Jerusalem above my highest joy!
7Remember, O Lord, against the Edomites the day of Jerusalem, how they said, "Lay it bare, lay it bare, down to its foundations!"
