Psalms 137:1-4

1By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.

2We hung our harps upon the willows in its midst.

3For 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.12

4How shall we sing the LORD’S song in a foreign land?3
