Psalms 137:4-8

⁴But how could we sing a song dedicated to the Lord in a pagan land?

⁵If I forget Jerusalem, may my right hand forget how to play;

⁶May my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I don't remember you—if I don't consider Jerusalem my greatest joy.

⁷Lord, please remember what the people of Edom did on the day Jerusalem fell, the ones who said “Tear it down! Destroy it down to its foundations!”

⁸Daughter of Babylon, you will be destroyed! Happy is the one who pays you back, who does to you what you did to us!
