Psalms 137:1-6

Psalms 137:1-6

[1] By the rivers  of Babylon,  there we sat down,  yea, we wept,  when we remembered  Zion.  [2] We hanged  our harps  upon the willows  in the midst  [3] For 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.  [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  [6] If I do not remember  thee, let my tongue  cleave  to the roof of my mouth;  if I prefer  not Jerusalem  above my chief  joy.
