Psalms 137

DOUAI-RHEIMS	KING JAMES BIBLE
1 Praise the Lord, for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever.	1 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down, yea, we wept, when we remembered Zion.
2 Praise ye the God of gods: for his mercy endureth for ever.	2 We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.
3 Praise ye the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.	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 Who alone doth great wonders: for his mercy endureth for ever.	4 How shall we sing the LORD's song in a strange land?
5 Who made the heavens in understanding: for his mercy endureth for ever.	5 If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
6 Who established the earth above the waters: for his mercy endureth for ever.	6 If I do not remember thee, let my tongue cleave to the roof of my mouth; if I prefer not Jerusalem above my chief joy.
7 Who made the great lights: for his mercy endureth for ever.	7 Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.
8 The sun to rule over the day: for his mercy endureth for ever.	8 O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.
9 The moon and the stars to rule the night: for his mercy endureth for ever.	9 Happy shall he be, that taketh and dasheth thy little ones against the stones.
10 Who smote Egypt with their firstborn: for his mercy endureth for ever.
11 Who brought Israel from among them: for his mercy endureth for ever.
12 With a mighty hand and a stretched out arm: for his mercy endureth for ever.
13 Who divided the Red Sea into parts: for his mercy endureth for ever.
14 And brought out Israel through the midst thereof: for his mercy endureth for ever.
15 And overthrew Pharao and his host in the Red Sea: for his mercy endureth for ever.
16 Who led his people through the desert: for his mercy endureth for ever.
17 Who smote great kings: for his mercy endureth for ever.
18 And slew strong kings: for his mercy endureth for ever.
19 Sehon king of the Amorrhites: for his mercy endureth for ever.
20 And Og king of Basan: for his mercy endureth for ever.
21 And he gave their land for an inheritance: for his mercy endureth for ever.
22 For an inheritance to his servant Israel: for his mercy endureth for ever.
23 For he was mindful of us in our affliction: for his mercy endureth for ever.
24 And he redeemed us from our enemies: for his mercy endureth for ever.
25 Who giveth food to all flesh: for his mercy endureth for ever.
26 Give glory to the God of heaven: for his mercy endureth for ever.
27 Give glory to the Lord of lords: for his mercy endureth for ever.
