- 6. 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.
- 7. Remember, Yahweh, against the children of Edom, the day of Jerusalem; who said, "Raze it! Raze it even to its foundation!"
- 8. Daughter of Babylon, doomed to destruction, he will be happy who rewards you, as you have served us.
- 9. Happy shall he be, who takes and dashes your little ones against the rock.
