Psalms 78:4-14

GOD'S WORD Translation GW

4 We will not hide them from our children. We will tell the next generation about the LORD's power and great deeds and the miraculous things he has done.

5 He established written instructions for Jacob's people. He gave his teachings to Israel. He commanded our ancestors to make them known to their children

6 so that the next generation would know them. Children yet to be born [would learn them]. They will grow up and tell their children

7 to trust God, to remember what he has done, and to obey his commands.

8 Then they will not be like their ancestors, a stubborn and rebellious generation. Their hearts were not loyal. Their spirits were not faithful to God.

9 The men of Ephraim, well-equipped with bows [and arrows], turned [and ran] on the day of battle.

10 They had not been faithful to God's promise. They refused to follow his teachings.

11 They forgot what he had done-- the miracles that he had shown them.

12 In front of their ancestors he performed miracles in the land of Egypt, in the fields of Zoan.

13 He divided the sea and led them through it. He made the waters stand up like a wall.

14 He guided them by a cloud during the day and by a fiery light throughout the night.

New International Version NIV

4 We will not hide them from their descendants; we will tell the next generation the praiseworthy deeds of the LORD, his power, and the wonders he has done.

5 He decreed statutes for Jacob and established the law in Israel, which he commanded our ancestors to teach their children,

6 so the next generation would know them, even the children yet to be born, and they in turn would tell their children.

7 Then they would put their trust in God and would not forget his deeds but would keep his commands.

8 They would not be like their ancestors— a stubborn and rebellious generation, whose hearts were not loyal to God, whose spirits were not faithful to him.

9 The men of Ephraim, though armed with bows, turned back on the day of battle;

10 they did not keep God’s covenant and refused to live by his law.

11 They forgot what he had done, the wonders he had shown them.

12 He did miracles in the sight of their ancestors in the land of Egypt, in the region of Zoan.

13 He divided the sea and led them through; he made the water stand up like a wall.

14 He guided them with the cloud by day and with light from the fire all night.
