Psalms 78:7-9

⁷that they might set their hope in God, and not forget God’s deeds, but keep his commandments,

⁸and might not be as their fathers— a stubborn and rebellious generation, a generation that didn’t make their hearts loyal, whose spirit was not steadfast with God.

⁹The children of Ephraim, being armed and carrying bows, turned back in the day of battle.
