Psalms 137

137

1By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down and wept # Eze 1:1

when we remembered Zion.

2Upon the willows in the midst of it

we hung our harps. # Isa 24:8; Eze 26:13

3For there, those who carried us away captive required of us songs,

and our plunderers, mirth,

saying, “Sing us one of the songs of Zion!”

4How shall we sing the song of the Lord

in a foreign land?

5If I forget you, O Jerusalem,

let my right hand forget its cunning!

6If I do not remember you,

let my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth, # Ps 22:15; Eze 3:26

if I prefer not Jerusalem

above my highest joy.

7Remember, O Lord, against the Edomites # Jer 49:7–22; La 4:21–22

the day of Jerusalem,

who said, “Raze it, raze it,

to its foundation!”

8O daughter of Babylon, destined to be destroyed, # Isa 13

blessed shall he be who rewards you

as you have served us! # Rev 18:6

9Blessed shall he be who takes

your little ones and dashes them against the rocks! # 2Ki 8:12; Isa 13:16; Hos 13:16
