Psalm 78:2-9

2 (A)I will open my mouth (B)in a parable;
I will utter dark sayings from of old,
3 things that we have heard and known,
that our (C)fathers have told us.
4 We will not (D)hide them from their children,
but (E)tell to the coming generation
the glorious deeds of the Lord, and his might,
and (F)the wonders that he has done.
5 He established (G)a testimony in (H)Jacob
and appointed a law in (I)Israel,
which he commanded our fathers
to teach to their children,
6 that (J)the next generation might know them,
the children yet unborn,
and arise and tell them to their children,
7 so that they should set their hope in God
and not forget (K)the works of God,
but (L)keep his commandments;
8 and that they should not be (M)like their fathers,
(N)a stubborn and rebellious generation,
a generation (O)whose heart was not steadfast,
whose spirit was not faithful to God.

5 He decreed statutes(G) for Jacob(H)
and established the law in Israel,
which he commanded our ancestors
to teach their children,
6 so the next generation would know them,
even the children yet to be born,(I)
and they in turn would tell their children.
7 Then they would put their trust in God
and would not forget(J) his deeds
but would keep his commands.(K)
