Rabbi Marvin Hier, the first Orthodox rabbi ever to give a benediction at an American president’s inauguration, cited psalm 137 at President Donald Trump’s inauguration on Friday.
“By the rivers of Babylon,” he recited. “We wept as we remembered Zion. If I forget thee, Oh Jerusalem, may my right hand forget its skill.”
