Psalm 137 expresses deep lament for the judgement that had come on God's people. It also prays for that judgement to come upon God's enemies. As this psalm contains one of the most confronting imprecations in the Scriptures it forces us to face the issue of our attitude to God's enemies and the place of imprecation in the plan and purpose of God.
