PSALM CXXXVII. 1. By the waters of Babylon we sat down and wept, when we remembered thee, O Sion. 2. As for our harps, we hanged them up, upon the trees that are therein. 3. For they that led us away captive required of us then a song, and melody, in our heaviness : Sing us one of the songs of Sion. 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; yea, if I prefer not Jerusalem in my mirth. 7. Remember the children of Edom, O Lord, in the day of Jerusalem, how they said, Down with it, down with it, even to the ground. 8. O daughter of Babylon, wasted with misery ; yea, happy shall he be that rewardeth thee, as thou hast served us. 9. Blessed be he that taketh thy children, and throweth them against the stones.
