Psalms 78

¹(A Wisdom Song by Asaph)
Open your ears to my instruction
Turn your ears toward the the words I speak.
²I will open my mouth in a teaching song.
I will speak hard sayings from ancient times.
³Words which we have heard and known,
and our ancestors have told us.
⁴We will not hide them from their children,
speaking YHWH's praises to a later generation,
His strength, and the wonderful things he has done.
⁵And he raised a testimony in Jacob,
and set instruction in Israel,
Which he commanded our ancestors
to teach to their children.
⁶So that the later generation might know,
The children to be born would rise up,
and teach them to their children.
⁷That they might set their hope in God,
And might not forget his mighty deeds,
But might observe his commands.
