For (A)He established a testimony in Jacob,
And appointed a law in Israel,
Which He commanded our fathers,
That (B)they should make them known to their children;
(C)That the generation to come might know them,
The children who would be born,
That they may arise and declare them to their children,
That they may set their hope in God,
And not forget the works of God,
But keep His commandments;
And (D)may not be like their fathers,
(E)A stubborn and rebellious generation,
A generation (F)that did not [a]set its heart aright,
And whose spirit was not faithful to God.

Footnotes

  1. Psalm 78:8 Lit. prepare its heart

He decreed statutes(A) for Jacob(B)
    and established the law in Israel,
which he commanded our ancestors
    to teach their children,
so the next generation would know them,
    even the children yet to be born,(C)
    and they in turn would tell their children.
Then they would put their trust in God
    and would not forget(D) his deeds
    but would keep his commands.(E)
They would not be like their ancestors(F)
    a stubborn(G) and rebellious(H) generation,
whose hearts were not loyal to God,
    whose spirits were not faithful to him.
