3 things that we have heard and known,
that our ancestors have told us.(A)

the glorious deeds of the Lord and his might
and the wonders that he has done.(B)
5 He established a decree in Jacob
and appointed a law in Israel,
which he commanded our ancestors
to teach to their children,(C)
6 that the next generation might know them,
the children yet unborn,
and rise up and tell them to their children,(D)
7 so that they should set their hope in God,
and not forget the works of God,
but keep his commandments;(E)
