Psa 78:1 Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
Psa 78:2 I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old: Psa 78:3 Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us. Psa 78:4 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. Psa 78:5 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: Psa 78:6 That the generation to come might know them, even the children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children: Psa 78:7 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments: Psa 78:8 And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation; a generation that set not their heart aright, and whose spirit was not stedfast with God. Psa 78:9 The children of Ephraim, being armed, and carrying bows, turned back in the day of battle. Psa 78:10 They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law; Psa 78:11 And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had shewed them. Psa 78:12 Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan. Psa 78:13 He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the waters to stand as an heap. Psa 78:14 In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire. Psa 78:15 He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as out of the great depths. Psa 78:16 He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers. Psa 78:17 And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most High in the wilderness. Psa 78:18 And they tempted God in their heart by asking meat for their lust. Psa 78:19 Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in the wilderness? Psa 78:20 Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people? Psa 78:21 Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel; Psa 78:22 Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation: Psa 78:23 Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors of heaven, Psa 78:24 And had rained down manna upon them to eat, and had given them of the corn of heaven. Psa 78:25 Man did eat angels' food: he sent them meat to the full. Psa 78:26 He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he brought in the south wind. Psa 78:27 He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as the sand of the sea: Psa 78:28 And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their habitations. Psa 78:29 So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their own desire; Psa 78:30 They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat was yet in their mouths, Psa 78:31 The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and smote down the chosen men of Israel. |
