¹ By the ^(a)rivers of Babylon,
There we sat down and ^(b)wept,
When we remembered Zion.
² Upon the ^[a](c)willows in the midst of it
We ^(d)hung our ^[b]harps.
³ For there our captors ^[c](e)demanded of us ^[d]songs,
And ^(f)our tormentors mirth, saying,
"Sing us one of the songs of Zion."

⁴ How can we sing ^(g)the Lord's song
In a foreign land?
⁵ If I ^(h)forget you, O Jerusalem,
May my right hand ^[e]forget her skill.
⁶ May my ⁽ⁱ⁾tongue cling to the roof of my mouth
If I do not remember you,
If I do not ^[f](j)exalt Jerusalem
Above my chief joy.

⁷ Remember, O Lord, against the sons of ^(k)Edom
The day of Jerusalem,
Who said, "Raze it, raze it
^(l)To its very foundation."
⁸ O daughter of Babylon, you ^[g](m)devastated one,
How blessed will be the one who ⁽ⁿ⁾repays you
With ^[h]the recompense with which you have repaid us.
⁹ How blessed will be the one who seizes and ^(o)dashes your little ones
Against the rock.
