Im eshkachech, Yerushalayim, tishkach yemini.
Tidbak lishoni, lichiki, Im lo ezkerechi, Im eshkachech, Yerushalayim, tishkach yemini. Tidbak lishoni, lichiki, Im lo ezkerechi, im lo a’a'leh, et Yerushalayim al rosh simchati. al rosh, al rosh simchati. | אִם אֶשְׁכָּחֵךְ יְרוּשָׁלָיִם, תִּשְׁכַּח יְמִינִי.
תִּדְבַּק לְשׁוֹנִי לְחִכִּי אִם לֹא אֶזְכְּרֵכִי, אִם לֹא אַעֲלֶה אֶת יְרוּשָׁלַֽיִם עַל רֹאשׁ שִׂמְחָתִי. |
Translation:If I forget you, Yerushalayim, let my right hand forget how to work. Let my tongue stick to the roof of my mouth, if I do not remember you, if I do not set Yerushalayim above my chiefest joy. | |
Information:Psalms 137:5-6
