\v 1 By the rivers of Babylon
|
|
|
|
|
\q we sat down and wept
|
|
|
|
|
\q when we thought about Zion.
|
|

\q
|
|
|
|
|
\v 2 On the poplars there
|
|
|
|
|
\q we hung our harps.

\q
|

|
|
\v 3 There our captors required songs from us,
|
|
|
|
|
\q and those who mocked us required us to be happy, saying,
|
|
|
|
|
\q "Sing us one of the songs of Zion."
|

\q
|

\v 4 How could we sing a song about Yahweh
|

|
|
|
\q in a foreign land?

\v 5 If I ignore the memory of you, Jerusalem,
|
|
|
|
|
\q let my right hand forget her skill.
|
|
|
|
|
\q
|
|
|
|
|
\v 6 Let my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth
|
|
|
|
|
\q if I think about you no more,
|
|
|
|
|
\q if I do not prefer Jerusalem
|
|
|
|
|
\q to my greatest delights.

\v 7 Call to mind, Yahweh, what the Edomites did
|

|
|
|
\q on the day Jerusalem fell.

\v 8 Daughter of Babylon, soon to be destroyed—

\q may the person be blessed, whoever pays you back

\q for what you have done to us.

\v 9 May the person be blessed, whoever takes and dashes your little ones
|

|
|

\q against a rock.
