[kjv] We hanged our harps upon the willows in the midst thereof.

137:3 [hgb] 因 为 在 那 里 , 掳 掠 我 们 的 要 我 们 唱 歌 , 抢 夺 我 们 的 , 要 我 们 作 乐 , 说 , 给 我 们 唱 一 首 锡 安 歌 吧 。
[kjv] 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.
[bbe] For there those who had taken us prisoners made request for a song; and those who had taken away all we had gave us orders to be glad, saying, Give us one of the songs of Zion.

[kjv] If I forget thee, O Jerusalem, let my right hand forget her cunning.
[bbe] If I keep not your memory, O Jerusalem, let not my right hand keep the memory of it............
