136:019 Sihon king of the Amorites; for his loving kindness endures forever; 136:020 Og king of Bashan; for his loving kindness endures forever; 136:021 And gave their land as an inheritance; for his loving kindness endures forever; 136:022 Even a heritage to Israel his servant; for his loving kindness endures forever: 136:023 Who remembered us in our low estate; for his loving kindness endures forever; 136:024 And has delivered us from our adversaries; for his loving kindness endures forever: 136:025 Who gives food to every creature; for his loving kindness endures forever. 136:026 Oh give thanks to the God of heaven; for his loving kindness endures forever. 137:001 By the rivers of Babylon, there we sat down. Yes, we wept, when we remembered Zion. 137:002 On the willows in the midst of it, we hung up our harps. 137:003 For there, those who led us captive asked us for songs. Those who tormented us demanded songs of joy: "Sing us one of the songs of Zion!" 137:004 How can we sing Yahweh's song in a foreign land? 137:005 If I forget you, Jerusalem, let my right hand forget its skill. 137:006 Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth if I don't remember you; if I don't prefer Jerusalem above my chief joy. 137:007 Remember, Yahweh, against the children of Edom, the day of Jerusalem; who said, "Raze it!

Before the gods, I will sing praises to you. 138:002 I will bow down toward your holy temple, and give thanks to your Name for your loving kindness and for your truth; for you have exalted your Name and your Word above all. 138:003 In the day that I called, you answered me.
