This morning I came across this in my "Read through the Bible in a Year" --
2 I will open my mouth in a parable. I will utter dark sayings of old,
3 Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.
4 We will not hide them from their children, telling to the generation to come the praises of the Lord, his strength, and his wondrous works that he has done.
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;
6 That the generation to come might know, even the children who should be born; who should arise and tell their children,
7 That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments,
8 And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, a generation that didn't make their hearts loyal, whose spirit was not steadfast with God.
(Psalm 78:2-8)
