Psalms 78:1-6

¹“A psalm of Asaph.” Give ear, O my people, to my instruction! Incline your ears to the words of my mouth!

²I will open my mouth in a psalm; I will utter sayings of ancient times.

³What we have heard and learned, And our fathers have told us,

⁴We will not hide from their children; Showing to the generation to come the praises of Jehovah, His might, and the wonders he hath wrought.

⁵For he appointed statutes in Jacob, And established a law in Israel, Which he commanded our fathers To make known to their children;

⁶So that the generation to come might know them; The children, which should be born, and rise up, Who should declare them to their children;
