7 Remember, O Lord, against the sons of (A)Edom
The day of Jerusalem,
Who said, “Raze it, raze it
(B)To its very foundation.”
8 O daughter of Babylon, you [a](C)devastated one,
How blessed will be the one who (D)repays you
With [b]the recompense with which you have repaid us.
9 How blessed will be the one who seizes and (E)dashes your little ones
Against the rock.
