Psalms 137:3

Back to Verses

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.

They wanted us to sing a song when they took us as prisoners, and those who destroyed our homes also demanded joyful music, asking for a Zion song.
