  • Psalm 78:1-4

    Psalm 78

    A maskil of Asaph.

    78 Listen, my people, to my teaching;
        tilt your ears toward the words of my mouth.
    I will open my mouth with a proverb.
        I’ll declare riddles from days long gone—
            ones that we’ve heard and learned about,
            ones that our ancestors told us.
    We won’t hide them from their descendants;
        we’ll tell the next generation
        all about the praise due the Lord and his strength—
        the wondrous works God has done.

  • Psalm 78:12-16

    12 But God performed wonders in their ancestors’ presence—
        in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.
    13 God split the sea and led them through,
        making the waters stand up like a wall.
    14 God led them with the cloud by day;
        by the lightning all through the night.
    15 God split rocks open in the wilderness,
        gave them plenty to drink—
        as if from the deep itself!
    16 God made streams flow from the rock,
        made water run like rivers.
