Psalms 137 Verses
1
We sat by the rivers in Babylon and cried as we remembered Zion.
2
We hung our harps nearby, there on the willow trees.
3
There in Babylon, those who captured us told us to sing. Our enemies told us to entertain them. They said, "Sing us one of your songs about Zion. "
4
But we cannot sing the Lord's songs in a foreign country!
5
Jerusalem, if I ever forget you, may I never play a song again.
6
If I fail to remember you, may I never sing again. I will always remember Jerusalem as my greatest joy!
7
Lord, be sure to punish the Edomites for what they did when Jerusalem was captured. They shouted, "Destroy its buildings! Pull them down to the ground!"
8
Babylon, you will be destroyed! Bless the one who pays you back for what you did to us.
9
Bless the one who grabs your babies and smashes them against a rock.
