Psalms 137:4 Cross References - Brenton

^{4 (136:4)} How should we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?

⁴ a time to weep, and a time to laugh; a time to lament, and a time to dance;

¹² And the Lord, the Lord of hosts, called in that day for weeping, and lamentation, and baldness, and for girding with sackcloth:

²¹ And thou shalt say in thine heart, Who has begotten me these? whereas I was childless, and a widow; but who has brought up these for me? and I was left alone; but whence came these to me?

¹⁴ And the elders ceased from the gate, the chosen men ceased from their music. ¹⁵ The joy of our heart has ceased; our dance is turned into mourning.

⁴ They have not offered wine to the Lord, neither have their sacrifices been sweet to him, but as the bread of mourning to them; all that eat them shall be defiled; for their bread for their soul shall not enter into the house of the Lord.

³ And the ceilings of the temple shall howl in that day, saith the Lord God: there shall be many a fallen one in every place; I will bring silence upon them.
