Psalm 137:6-8

New Revised Standard Version Updated Edition

⁶Let my tongue cling to the roof of my mouth,
if I do not remember you,
if I do not set Jerusalem
above my highest joy.^(A)

⁷Remember, O Lord, against the Edomites
    the day of Jerusalem’s fall,
how they said, “Tear it down! Tear it down!
    Down to its foundations!”^(B)
⁸O daughter Babylon, you devastator!^[a]
    Happy shall they be who pay you back
    what you have done to us!^(C)
