Psalms 137:7
Compare all
5 If I forget you, O Jerusalem,
Let my right hand forget its skill!
6 If I do not remember you,
Let my atongue cling to the roof of my mouth—
If I do not exalt Jerusalem
Above my chief joy. 
7 Remember, O Lord, against athe sons of Edom
The day of Jerusalem,
Who said,1 “Raze it, raze it,
To its very foundation!” 
8 O daughter of Babylon, awho are to be destroyed,
Happy the one bwho repays you as you have served us! 
9 Happy the one who takes and adashes
Your little ones against the rock!

Psalms 137:7

Remember - the children of Edom - It appears from Jeremiah 12:6; Jeremiah 25:14; Lamentations 4:21, Lamentations 4:22; Ezekiel 25:12; Obadiah 1:11-14; that the Idumeans joined the army of Nebuchadnezzar against their brethren the Jews; and that they were main instruments in rasing the walls of Jerusalem even to the ground.
