Mazmur 78:6-8
Konteks78:6 so that the next generation, children yet to be born,
might know about them.
They will grow up and tell their descendants about them. 1
78:7 Then they will place their confidence in God.
They will not forget the works of God,
and they will obey 2 his commands.
78:8 Then they will not be like their ancestors,
who were a stubborn and rebellious generation,
a generation that was not committed
and faithful to God. 3
Mazmur 78:22
Konteks78:22 because they did not have faith in God,
and did not trust his ability to deliver them. 4
Mazmur 106:21-25
Konteks106:21 They rejected 5 the God who delivered them,
the one who performed great deeds in Egypt,
106:22 amazing feats in the land of Ham,
mighty 6 acts by the Red Sea.
106:23 He threatened 7 to destroy them,
but 8 Moses, his chosen one, interceded with him 9
and turned back his destructive anger. 10
106:24 They rejected the fruitful land; 11
they did not believe his promise. 12
106:25 They grumbled in their tents; 13
they did not obey 14 the Lord.
