Psalm 137

¹By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
²We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
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.
⁴How shall we sing the Lord’s song in a strange land?
⁵If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
⁶If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
