Psalm 78:5-7

New International Reader's Version

⁵ He gave laws to the people of Jacob.
    He gave Israel their law.
He commanded our people who lived before us
    to teach his laws to their children.
⁶ Then those born later would know his laws.
    Even their children yet to come would know them.
    And they in turn would tell their children.
⁷ Then they would put their trust in God.
    They would not forget what he had done.
    They would obey his commands.
