Psalms 137

Psalms 137:7

Remember, O LORD, the children of Edom in the day of Jerusalem; who said, Rase it, rase it, even to the foundation thereof.

Remember, O Lord, the unkind and cruel posterity of Esau; how spitefully they behaved themselves in the day, when Jerusalem was taken and sacked; how they insulted; how they encouraged our enemies, to rase and demolish it even to the very ground.

Psalms 137:8

O daughter of Babylon, who art to be destroyed; happy shall he be, that rewardeth thee as thou hast served us.

O thou Babylon, who, as thou hast destroyed this our goodly city, so thyself also art ordained to destruction; it shall be a happy work in those, that shall have a hand in thy ruin, to return thine own cruel measure back unto thee.
