Psalms 137:3-6 for there they who had captivated us, asked of us the words of a song: and they who had led us away, asked for a hymn, saying, Sing for us some of the odes of Sion.

Thomson⁽ⁱ⁾ ³ for there they who had captivated us, asked of us the words of a song: and they who had led us away, asked for a hymn, saying, Sing for us some of the odes of Sion. ⁴ How can we sing the song of the Lord in a strange country? ⁵ Jerusalem, if I forget thee, let my right hand be forgotten. ⁶ Let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth, if I do not remember thee; if I set not Jerusalem foremost, as the chief object of my joy.
