Psalm 78:3-4
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
3 What we have heard and know;
things our ancestors have recounted to us.(A)
4 We do not keep them from our children;
we recount them to the next generation,
The praiseworthy deeds of the Lord and his strength,
the wonders that he performed.(B)
Psalm 78:6-8
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
6 That the next generation might come to know,
children yet to be born.(A)
In turn they were to recount them to their children,
7 that they too might put their confidence in God,
And not forget God’s deeds,
but keep his commandments.
8 They were not to be like their ancestors,
a rebellious and defiant generation,(B)
A generation whose heart was not constant,(C)
and whose spirit was not faithful to God.
