Psalms 137:3-6 It was there that those who had captured us demanded that we sing. Those who guarded us wanted us to entertain them. They said: »Sing a song from Zion for us!«

NSB⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ It was there that those who had captured us demanded that we sing. Those who guarded us wanted us to entertain them. They said: »Sing a song from Zion for us!« ⁴ How could we sing Jehovah’s song in a foreign land? ⁵ If I forget you, Jerusalem, let my right hand forget how to play the harp. ⁶ Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I do not remember you, if I do not consider Jerusalem my highest joy.
