Give
ear, O my

law: incline your
ears to the
words of my
mouth.

I will
open my
mouth in a
parable: I will
utter dark
sayings of
old:

Which we have
heard and
known, and our
fathers have
told us.

We will not
hide them from their
children, shewing to the
generation to
come the
praises of the
LORD, and his
strength, and his wonderful
works that he hath
done.

For he
established a
testimony in
Jacob, and
appointed a
law in
Israel, which he
commanded our
fathers, that they should make them
known to their
children:

That the
generation to
come might
know them, even the
children which should be
born; who should
arise and
declare them to their
children:

That they might
set their
hope in
God, and not
forget the
works of
God, but
keep his
commandments:
