< Psalms 137 >
1 At [the] rivers of - Babylon there we sat also we wept when remembered we Zion.
2 On poplars in [the] midst of it we hung up harps our.
3 For there they asked us captors our words of a song and mockers our gladness sing for us one of [the] song[s] of Zion.
4 How? will we sing [the] song of Yahweh on ground of foreignness.
5 If I will forget you O Jerusalem may it forget right [hand] my.
6 May it cleave tongue my - to palate my if not I will remember you if not I will lift up Jerusalem above [the] chief of joy my.
7 Remember O Yahweh - to [the] people of Edom [the] day of Jerusalem who were saying lay bare - lay bare to the foundation in it.
8 O daughter of Babylon that is about to be destroyed how blessed! [is one] who he will repay to you dealing your that you dealt to us.
9 How blessed! - [is one] who he will seize and he will smash children your to the rock.
