"so that another generation might know them, and so that the sons, who will be born and who will grow up, shall describe them to their sons. "
— Psalms 77:6, Catholic Public Domain Version
“I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.”
“I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart; And my spirit maketh diligent search. ”
“I remember my song in the night. I consider in my own heart; my spirit diligently inquires:”
“I said,“During the night I will remember the song I once sang; I will think very carefully.” I tried to make sense of what was happening.”
“That another generation might know them. The children that should be born and should rise up, and declare them to their children.”
“The memory of my song comes back to me in the night; my thoughts are moving in my heart; my spirit is searching with care.”
“I call to remembrance my song in the night: I commune with mine own heart: and my spirit made diligent search.”
We have heard and known such great things, as our fathers have described to us.
These things have not been hidden from their sons in any generation: declaring the praises of the Lord, and his virtues, and the wonders that he has done.
And he has received testimony with Jacob, and he has set a law within Israel. Such great things, he has commanded our fathers, so as to make these things known to their sons,
so that another generation might know them, and so that the sons, who will be born and who will grow up, shall describe them to their sons.
So then, may they put their hope in God, and may they not forget the works of God, and may they seek his commandments.
May they not become like their fathers, a perverse and exasperating generation: a generation that does not straighten their heart and whose spirit is not trustworthy with God.
The sons of Ephraim, who bend and shoot the bow, have been turned back in the day of battle.
