Bible Text (Scroll to Verse) [Copy]
1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yes, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst of it.
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 will we sing the LORD [Yahweh]'S song in a strange land?
5 If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget [her cunning].
6 If I do not remember you, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
7 Remember, O LORD [Yahweh], the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Raze [it], raze [it, even] to the foundation of it.
8 O daughter of Babylon, who are to be destroyed; happy [will he be], that rewards you as you have served us.
9 Happy [will he be], that takes and dashes your little ones against the stones.
