1 Give ear, you heavens, and I will speak.Let the earth hear the words of my mouth.
2 My doctrine will drop as the rain.My speech will condense as the dew,as the misty rain on the tender grass,as the showers on the herb.
3 For I will proclaim the Lord’s name.Ascribe greatness to our God!
4 The Rock, his work is perfect,for all his ways are just.A God of faithfulness who does no wrong,just and right is he.
5 They have dealt corruptly with him.They are not his children, because of their defect.They are a perverse and crooked generation.
6 Is this the way you repay the Lord,foolish and unwise people?Isn’t he your father who has bought you?He has made you and established you.
7 Remember the days of old.Consider the years of many generations.Ask your father, and he will show you;your elders, and they will tell you.
