3 For, in that place, those who led us into captivity questioned us about the words of the songs.And those who carried us away said:'Sing us a hymn from the songs of Zion.'
4 How can we sing a song of the Lord in a foreign land?
5 If I ever forget you, Jerusalem, let my right hand be forgotten.
6 May my tongue adhere to my jaws, if I do not remember you,if I do not set Jerusalem first, as the beginning of my joy.
7 O Lord, call to mind the sons of Edom,in the day of Jerusalem, who say:'Despoil it, despoil it, even to its foundation.'
