22 Even a heritage unto Israel his servant; for his mercy endureth forever.

23 Who remembered us in our low estate; for his mercy endureth forever;

Psalms 137
Intro: Constancy in captivity.

1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.

2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.

3 For there they that carried us away captive required of us a song; and they that wasted us required of us mirth, saying, Sing us one of the songs of Zion.

4 How shall we sing the Lord's song in a strange land?

5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its cunning.
