1By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, When we remembered Zion.
2We hanged our harps Upon the willows in the midst thereof.
3For 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.
4How shall we sing the Lord’s song In a strange land?
Psalms 137
