Psalms 137:6 Context
4How shall we sing the Lords song: in a strange land? 5If I forget thee, O Ierusalem: let my right hand forget her cunning. 6If I doe not remember thee, let my tongue cleaue to the roofe of my mouth; if I preferre not Ierusalem aboue my chiefe ioy. 7Remember, O Lord, the children of Edom, in the day of Ierusalem; who sayd, rase it, rase it: euen to the foundation thereof. 8O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed: happy shall he be that rewardeth thee, as thou hast serued vs.
