Psalm 78:42

42 No se acordaron de su poder
ni de cómo los rescató de sus enemigos.

Psalm 78:42 Meaning and Commentary

Psalms 78:42

They remembered not his hand
Which brought them out of Egypt, and dashed their enemies in pieces, and which had been so often opened to supply their wants in the wilderness; the Targum renders it, the miracles of his hand:

nor the day when he delivered them from the enemy;
Pharaoh king of Egypt; that very memorable day in which they were delivered out of his hands, that selfsame day which had been fixed, by promise and prophecy many hundreds of years before, in which the hosts of the Lord went out of Egypt, ( Exodus 12:41 ) ( Genesis 15:13 Genesis 15:14 ) , times when as well as places where deliverances and salvation have been wrought should not be forgotten; and forgetfulness of the goodness of God in times past is often the cause and occasion of sinning against him, which, by a remembrance of his kind appearances, might be prevented.

Psalm 78:42 In-Context

40 Cuántas veces se rebelaron contra él en el desierto
y entristecieron su corazón en esa tierra seca y baldía.

41 Una y otra vez pusieron a prueba la paciencia de Dios
y provocaron al Santo de Israel.

42 No se acordaron de su poder
ni de cómo los rescató de sus enemigos.

43 No recordaron las señales milagrosas que hizo en Egipto
ni sus maravillas en la llanura de Zoán.

44 Pues él convirtió los ríos en sangre,
para que nadie pudiera beber de los arroyos.
