By the riversH5104 of BabylonH894, there we sat downH3427, yea, we weptH1058, when we rememberedH2142 ZionH6726.
We hangedH8518 our harpsH3658 upon the willowsH6155 in the midstH8432 thereof.
For there they that carried us away captiveH7617 requiredH7592 of us a songH1697+H7892; and they that wastedH8437 us required of us mirthH8057, saying, SingH7891 us one of the songsH7892 of ZionH6726. {a song: Heb. the words of a song} {wasted…: Heb. laid us on heaps}
How shall we singH7891 the LORD'SH3068 songH7892 in a strangeH5236 landH127? {strange…: Heb. land of a stranger?}
If I forgetH7911 thee, O JerusalemH3389, let my right handH3225 forgetH7911 her cunning.
If I do not rememberH2142 thee, let my tongueH3956 cleaveH1692 to the roof of my mouthH2441; if I preferH5927 not JerusalemH3389 above my chiefH7218 joyH8057. {my chief…: Heb. the head of my joy}
RememberH2142, O LORDH3068, the childrenH1121 of EdomH123 in the dayH3117 of JerusalemH3389; who saidH559, RaseH6168 it, raseH6168 it, even to the foundationH3247 thereof. {Rase it: Heb. Make bare}
O daughterH1323 of BabylonH894, who art to be destroyedH7703; happyH835 shall he be, that rewardethH7999 thee as thou hast servedH1580+H1576 us. {destroyed: Heb. wasted} {rewardeth…: Heb. recompenseth unto thee thy deed which thou didst to us}
HappyH835 shall he be, that takethH270 and dashethH5310 thy little onesH5768 against the stonesH5553. {the stones: Heb. the rock}
