Give ear
<0238> (8685)_,

{Maschil...: or, A Psalm for Asaph to give instruction}

78:2

I will open
<06605> (8799)

my mouth
<06310>

in a parable
<04912>_:

I will utter
<05042> (8686)

dark sayings
<02420>

of old
<06924>_:

78:3

Which we have heard
<08085> (8804)

and known
<03045> (8799)_,

and our fathers
<01>

have told
<05608> (8765)

us.

78:4

We will not hide
<03582> (8762)

[them] from their children
<01121>_,

shewing
<05608> (8764)

to the generation
<01755>

to come
<0314>

the praises
<08416>

of the LORD
<03068>_,

and his strength
<05807>_,

and his wonderful works
<06381> (8737)

that he hath done
<06213> (8804)_.

For he established
<06965> (8686)

a testimony
<05715>

in Jacob
<03290>_,

and appointed
<07760> (8804)

a law
<08451>

in Israel
<03478>_,

which he commanded
<06680> (8765)

our fathers
<01>_,

that they should make them known
<03045> (8687)

to their children
<01121>_:

78:6

That the generation
<01755>

to come
<0314>

might know
<03045> (8799)

[them, even] the children
<01121>

[which] should be born
<03205> (8735)_;

[who] should arise
<06965> (8799)

and declare
<05608> (8762)

[them] to their children
<01121>_:
