Psalms 78:6

Read in context

Psalms 78:4–8 · Berean Standard Bible

4 We will not hide them from their children, but will declare to the next generation the praises of the LORD and His might, and the wonders He has performed.

5 For He established a testimony in Jacob and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our fathers to teach to their children,

6 that the coming generation would know them— even children yet to be born— to arise and tell their own children

7 that they should put their confidence in God, not forgetting His works, but keeping His commandments.

8 Then they will not be like their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, whose heart was not loyal, whose spirit was not faithful to God.
