Psalm 137:3-5
New Revised Standard Version, Anglicised

3 For there our captors
    asked us for songs,
and our tormentors asked for mirth, saying,
    ‘Sing us one of the songs of Zion!’

4 How could we sing the Lord’s song
    in a foreign land?
5 If I forget you, O Jerusalem,
    let my right hand wither!
