Psalm 137:4-6

EasyEnglish Bible

⁴ But we are in a foreign land,
    so we cannot sing a song to the Lord.
⁵ Jerusalem, I never want to forget you.
    I would rather lose my right hand!
⁶     I would rather my tongue could no longer move!^[a]
Yes, I will always remember you, Jerusalem.
You are the most important thing that I think about,
    more than anything else that makes me happy.
