Psalm 78:4-7 Print E-mail

[4] We will not hide them from their children; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD, his power, and the wonders he has done.

[5] He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our forefathers to teach their children,

[6] so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children.

[7] Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands.
