1 Open your ears to my teachings, my people.Turn your ears to the words from my mouth.
2 I will open my mouth to illustrate points.I will explain what has been hidden long ago,
3 things that we have heard and known about,things that our parents have told us.
4 We will not hide them from our children.We will tell the next generationabout the Lord’s power and great deedsand 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
