136:1. Upon the rivers of Babylon, there we sat and wept: when we remembered Zion:

136:2. On the willows in the midst thereof we hung up our instruments.

'''136:3. For there they that led us into captivity required of us the words of songs. And they that carried us away, said: Sing ye to us a hymn of the songs of Zion.'''

136:4. How shall we sing the song of the Lord in a strange land?

136:5. If I forget you, O Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten.

136:6. Let my tongue cleave to my jaws, if I do not remember you: If I make not Jerusalem the beginning of my joy.
