Psalm 78:4-7

New International Reader's Version

⁴ We won’t hide them from our children.
    We will tell them to those who live after us.
We will tell them what the Lord has done that is worthy of praise.
    We will talk about his power and the wonderful things he has done.
⁵ He gave laws to the people of Jacob.
    He gave Israel their law.
He commanded our people who lived before us
    to teach his laws to their children.
⁶ Then those born later would know his laws.
    Even their children yet to come would know them.
    And they in turn would tell their children.
⁷ Then they would put their trust in God.
    They would not forget what he had done.
    They would obey his commands.
