Psalms 78
World English Bible (WEB)
4 Ref We will not hide them from their children, Telling to the generation to come the praises of Yahweh, His strength, and his wondrous works that he has done.
5 Ref 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 Ref That the generation to come might know, even the children who should be born; Who should arise and tell their children,
7 Ref That they might set their hope in God, And not forget the works of God, But keep his commandments,
8 Ref And might not be as their fathers, A stubborn and rebellious generation, A generation that didn't make their hearts loyal, Whose spirit was not steadfast with God.
Bible in Basic English (BBE)
4 Ref We will not keep them secret from our children; we will make clear to the coming generation the praises of the Lord and his strength, and the great works of wonder which he has done.
5 Ref He put up a witness in Jacob, and made a law in Israel; which he gave to our fathers so that they might give knowledge of them to their children;
6 Ref So that the generation to come might have knowledge of them, even the children of the future, who would give word of them to their children;
7 Ref So that they might put their hope in God, and not let God's works go out of their minds, but keep his laws;
8 Ref And not be like their fathers, a stiff-necked and uncontrolled generation; a generation whose heart was hard, whose spirit was not true to God.
