Readings for Lent and Easter
3 which we have heard and known,
and our fathers have told us.
4 We will not hide them from their children,
shewing to the generation to come the praises of the Lord,
and his strength, and his wonderful works that he hath done.
5 For he established a testimony in Jacob,
and appointed a law in Israel,
which he commanded our fathers,
that they should make them known to their children:
6 that the generation to come might know them,
even the children which should be born;
who should arise and declare them to their children:
7 that they might set their hope in God,
and not forget the works of God,
but keep his commandments:
8 and might not be as their fathers,
a stubborn and rebellious generation;
a generation that set not their heart aright,
and whose spirit was not stedfast with God.
