3That we have heard and do know, And our fathers have recounted to us.
4We do not hide from their sons, To a later generation recounting praises of Jehovah, And His strength, and His wonders that He hath done.
5And He raiseth up a testimony in Jacob, And a law hath placed in Israel, That He commanded our fathers, To make them known to their sons.
6So that a later generation doth know, Sons who are born, do rise and recount to their sons,
7And place in God their confidence, And forget not the doings of God, But keep His commands.
8And they are not like their fathers, A generation apostate and rebellious, A generation! it hath not prepared its heart, Nor stedfast with God [is] its spirit.
9Sons of Ephraim -- armed bearers of bow, Have turned in a day of conflict.
