Psalm 78

God’s Guidance of His People in Spite of Their Unfaithfulness.

A Maskil of Asaph.

1Listen, my people, to my instruction;
Incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
2I will open my mouth in a parable;
I will tell riddles of old,
3Which we have heard and known,
And our fathers have told us.
4We will not conceal them from their children,
But we will tell the generation to come the praises of the Lord,
And His power and His wondrous works that He has done.
5For He established a testimony in Jacob,
And appointed a law in Israel,
Which He commanded our fathers
That they were to teach them to their children,
6So that the generation to come would know, the children yet to be born,
That they would arise and tell them to their children,
7So that they would put their confidence in God
And not forget the works of God,
But comply with His commandments,
8And not be like their fathers,
A stubborn and rebellious generation,
A generation that did not prepare its heart
And whose spirit was not faithful to God.
