1[an error occurred while processing this directive]1There we sat down and cried— by the rivers of Babylon— as we remembered Zion.
2[an error occurred while processing this directive]2On the willows there we hung our harps,
3[an error occurred while processing this directive]3for it was there that our captors asked us for songs and our torturers demanded joy from us, "Sing us one of the songs about Zion!"
4[an error occurred while processing this directive]4How are we to sing the song of the LORD on foreign soil?
5[an error occurred while processing this directive]5If I forget you, Jerusalem, may my right hand cease to function.
6[an error occurred while processing this directive]6May my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I don't remember you, if I don't consider Jerusalem to be more important than my highest joy.
7[an error occurred while processing this directive]7Remember the day of Jerusalem's fall, LORD, because of the Edomites, who kept saying, "Tear it down! Tear it right down to its foundations!"
8[an error occurred while processing this directive]8Daughter of Babylon! You devastator! How blessed will be the one who pays you back for what you have done to us.
9[an error occurred while processing this directive]9How blessed will be the one who seizes your young children and pulverizes them against the cliff!
