1 My people, listen to my teaching;listen to what I say.
2 I will speak using stories;I will tell secret things from long ago.
3 We have heard them and known themby what our ancestors have told us.
4 We will not keep them from our children;we will tell those who come laterabout the praises of the Lord.We will tell about his powerand the miracles he has done.
5 The Lord made an agreement with Jacoband gave the teachings to Israel,which he commanded our ancestorsto teach to their children.
6 Then their children would know them,even their children not yet born.And they would tell their children.
