Verse |
|
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. |
