Psalm 137:2-4

EasyEnglish Bible

² We hung up our harps there
    on the branches of the willow trees.
³ Our enemies asked us to sing songs for them there.
    They laughed at us as their prisoners.
They asked for a song to make them happy.
    They shouted, ‘Sing us a song about Zion!’
⁴ But we are in a foreign land,
    so we cannot sing a song to the Lord.
