Psalm 137:7-9
Legacy Standard Bible
7 Remember, O Yahweh, against the sons of (A)Edom
The day of Jerusalem,
Who said, “Tear it down! Tear it down
(B)To its very foundation.”
8 O daughter of Babylon, you (C)devastated one,
How blessed will be the one who (D)repays you
With [a]the recompense with which you have recompensed us.
9 How blessed will be the one who seizes and (E)dashes your infants
Against the cliff.
