¹⁸ Which wise men have told from their fathers, and have not hid it:

⁸ For enquire, I pray thee, of the former age, and prepare thyself to the search of their fathers:

¹⁰ With us are both the grayheaded and very aged men, much elder than thy father.

¹⁸ Now also when I am old and greyheaded, O God, forsake me not; until I have shewed thy strength unto this generation, and thy power to every one that is to come.

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:

¹⁹ The living, the living, he shall praise thee, as I do this day: the father to the children shall make known thy truth.
