Chapter 137.
When we had been taken to Babylonia, far from Jerusalem, we sat down by the rivers there, and we cried when we thought about the temple on Zion Hill in Jerusalem. 
On the willow trees alongside the rivers we hung our harps because we did not want to play them any more because we were very sad. 
The soldiers who had captured us and taken us to Babylonia told us to sing for them; they told us to ◄entertain them/make them happy►, saying, “Sing for us one of the songs that you previously sang in Jerusalem!” 
But we thought, “We are sad because we have been punished by Yahweh and brought to this foreign land, so we cannot RHQ sing songs about Yahweh while we are here!” 
If I forget about Jerusalem APO, Iet my right hand wither with the result that I will be unable to play my harp 
Do not allow me to sing again MTY, if I forget about Jerusalem, if I do not consider that Jerusalem causes me to be more joyful than anything else does. 
Yahweh, punish the people of the Edom people-group for what they did on the day that the army of Babylon captured Jerusalem. Do not forget that they said, “Tear down all the buildings! Destroy them completely! Leave only the foundations!” 
And you people of Babylon, you will certainly be destroyed! Those who punish you in return for what you did to us will be happy; 
they will take your babies and completely smash them on the rocks.
