1 We sat by the big rivers in Babylon. We cried when we thought of Zion. ️ 2 We put our harps on the willow trees. 3 The men who took us said, “Sing us a happy song from Zion.” They teased us. 4 We said, “How can we sing God’s song in a new land?” ❓ 5 I said, “If I forget you, Jerusalem, may my right hand not work.” ✋ 6 I said, “If I do not think of you, may my tongue stick. I love Jerusalem the most.” ❤️️ 7 God, please think of Edom. They said, “Tear the city down!” ️ 8 Babylon, you will fall. Happy is the one who pays you back for what you did to us. ️⬇️⚖️ 9 Happy is the one who takes your babies and hits them on rocks.
