Psalms 78

1

Maschilh4905h8688 of Asaphh623. Give earh238h8685, O my peopleh5971, to my lawh8451: inclineh5186h8685 your earsh241 to the wordsh561 of my mouthh6310. Maschil...: or, A Psalm for Asaph to give instruction

2

I will openh6605h8799 my mouthh6310 in a parableh4912: I will utterh5042h8686 dark sayingsh2420 of oldh6924:

3

Which we have heardh8085h8804 and knownh3045h8799, and our fathersh1 have toldh5608h8765 us.

4

We will not hideh3582h8762 them from their childrenh1121, shewingh5608h8764 to the generationh1755 to comeh314 the praisesh8416 of the LORDh3068, and his strengthh5807, and his wonderful worksh6381h8737 that he hath doneh6213h8804.

5

For he establishedh6965h8686 a testimonyh5715 in Jacobh3290, and appointedh7760h8804 a lawh8451 in Israelh3478, which he commandedh6680h8765 our fathersh1, that they should make them knownh3045h8687 to their childrenh1121:

6

That the generationh1755 to comeh314 might knowh3045h8799 them, even the childrenh1121 which should be bornh3205h8735; who should ariseh6965h8799 and declareh5608h8762 them to their childrenh1121:

7

That they might seth7760h8799 their hopeh3689 in Godh430, and not forgeth7911h8799 the worksh4611 of Godh410, but keeph5341h8799 his commandmentsh4687:

8

And might not be as their fathersh1, a stubbornh5637h8802 and rebellioush4784h8802 generationh1755; a generationh1755 that seth3559 not their hearth3820 arighth3559h8689, and whose spirith7307 was not stedfasth539h8738 with Godh410. that...: Heb. that prepared not their heart

9

The childrenh1121 of Ephraimh669, being armedh5401h8802, and carryingh7411h8802 bowsh7198, turned backh2015h8804 in the dayh3117 of battleh7128. carrying: Heb. throwing forth

10

They kepth8104h8804 not the covenanth1285 of Godh430, and refusedh3985h8765 to walkh3212h8800 in his lawh8451;

11

And forgath7911h8799 his worksh5949, and his wondersh6381h8737 that he had shewedh7200h8689 them.

12

Marvellous thingsh6382 didh6213h8804 he in the sighth5048 of their fathersh1, in the landh776 of Egypth4714, in the fieldh7704 of Zoanh6814.

13

He dividedh1234h8804 the seah3220, and caused them to pass throughh5674h8686; and he made the watersh4325 to standh5324h8686 as an heaph5067.

14

In the daytimeh3119 also he ledh5148h8686 them with a cloudh6051, and all the nighth3915 with a lighth216 of fireh784.

15

He claveh1234h8762 the rocksh6697 in the wildernessh4057, and gave them drinkh8248h8686 as out of the greath7227 depthsh8415.

16

He broughth3318h8686 streamsh5140h8802 also out of the rockh5553, and caused watersh4325 to run downh3381h8686 like riversh5104.

17

And they sinnedh2398h8800 yet moreh3254h8686 against him by provokingh4784h8687 the most Highh5945 in the wildernessh6723.

18

And they temptedh5254h8762 Godh410 in their hearth3824 by askingh7592h8800 meath400 for their lusth5315.

19

Yea, they spakeh1696h8762 against Godh430; they saidh559h8804, Canh3201h8799 Godh410 furnishh6186h8800 a tableh7979 in the wildernessh4057? furnish: Heb. order

20

Behold, he smoteh5221h8689 the rockh6697, that the watersh4325 gushed outh2100h8799, and the streamsh5158 overflowedh7857h8799; canh3201h8799 he giveh5414h8800 breadh3899 also? canh3201h8799 he provideh3559h8686 fleshh7607 for his peopleh5971?

21

Therefore the LORDh3068 heardh8085h8804 this , and was wrothh5674h8691: so a fireh784 was kindledh5400h8738 against Jacobh3290, and angerh639 also came uph5927h8804 against Israelh3478;

22

Because they believedh539h8689 not in Godh430, and trustedh982h8804 not in his salvationh3444:

23

Though he had commandedh6680h8762 the cloudsh7834 from aboveh4605, and openedh6605h8804 the doorsh1817 of heavenh8064,

24

And had rained downh4305h8686 mannah4478 upon them to eath398h8800, and had givenh5414h8804 them of the cornh1715 of heavenh8064.

25

Manh376 did eath398h8804 angelsh47' foodh3899: he senth7971h8804 them meath6720 to the fullh7648. Man...: or, Every one did eat the bread of the mighty

26

He caused an east windh6921 to blowh5265h8686 in the heavenh8064: and by his powerh5797 he brought inh5090h8762 the south windh8486. to blow: Heb. to go

27

He rainedh4305h8686 fleshh7607 also upon them as dusth6083, and featheredh3671 fowlsh5775 like as the sandh2344 of the seah3220: feathered...: Heb. fowl of wing

28

And he let it fallh5307h8686 in the midsth7130 of their camph4264, round abouth5439 their habitationsh4908.

29

So they did eath398h8799, and were wellh3966 filledh7646h8799: for he gaveh935h8686 them their own desireh8378;

30

They were not estrangedh2114h8804 from their lusth8378. But while their meath400 was yet in their mouthsh6310,

31

The wrathh639 of Godh430 cameh5927h8804 upon them, and slewh2026h8799 the fattesth4924 of them, and smote downh3766h8689 the chosenh970 men of Israelh3478. smote...: Heb. made to bow
Chosen...: or, young men

32

For all this they sinnedh2398h8804 still, and believedh539h8689 not for his wondrous worksh6381h8737.

33

Therefore their daysh3117 did he consumeh3615h8762 in vanityh1892, and their yearsh8141 in troubleh928.

34

When he slewh2026h8804 them, then they soughth1875h8804 him: and they returnedh7725h8804 and enquired earlyh7836h8765 after Godh410.

35

And they rememberedh2142h8799 that Godh430 was their rockh6697, and the highh5945 Godh410 their redeemerh1350h8802.

36

Nevertheless they did flatterh6601h8762 him with their mouthh6310, and they liedh3576h8762 unto him with their tonguesh3956.

37

For their hearth3820 was not righth3559h8737 with him, neither were they stedfasth539h8738 in his covenanth1285.

38

But he, being full of compassionh7349, forgaveh3722h8762 their iniquityh5771, and destroyedh7843h8686 them not: yea, many a timeh7235h8689 turnedh7725 he his angerh639 awayh7725h8687, and did not stir uph5782h8686 all his wrathh2534.

39

For he rememberedh2142h8799 that they were but fleshh1320; a windh7307 that passeth awayh1980h8802, and cometh not againh7725h8799.

40

Howh4100 oft did they provokeh4784h8686 him in the wildernessh4057, and grieveh6087h8686 him in the deserth3452! provoke: or, rebel against

41

Yea, they turned backh7725h8799 and temptedh5254h8762 Godh410, and limitedh8428h8689 the Holy Oneh6918 of Israelh3478.

42

They rememberedh2142h8804 not his handh3027, nor the dayh3117 when he deliveredh6299h8804 them from the enemyh6862. from...: or, from affliction

43

How he had wroughth7760h8804 his signsh226 in Egypth4714, and his wondersh4159 in the fieldh7704 of Zoanh6814: wrought: Heb. set

44

And had turnedh2015h8799 their riversh2975 into bloodh1818; and their floodsh5140h8802, that they could not drinkh8354h8799.

45

He senth7971h8762 divers sorts of fliesh6157 among them, which devouredh398h8799 them; and frogsh6854, which destroyedh7843h8686 them.

46

He gaveh5414h8799 also their increaseh2981 unto the caterpillerh2625, and their labourh3018 unto the locusth697.

47

He destroyedh2026h8799 their vinesh1612 with hailh1259, and their sycomore treesh8256 with frosth2602. destroyed: Heb. killed
frost: or, great hailstones

48

He gave uph5462h8686 their cattleh1165 also to the hailh1259, and their flocksh4735 to hot thunderboltsh7565. gave...: Heb. shut up
hot...: or, lightnings

49

He casth7971h8762 upon them the fiercenessh2740 of his angerh639, wrathh5678, and indignationh2195, and troubleh6869, by sendingh4917 evilh7451 angelsh4397 among them .

50

He madeh6424h8762 a wayh5410 to his angerh639; he sparedh2820h8804 not their soulh5315 from deathh4194, but gaveh5462 their lifeh2416 overh5462h8689 to the pestilenceh1698; He made...: Heb. He weighed a path
life...: or, beasts to the murrain

51

And smoteh5221h8686 all the firstbornh1060 in Egypth4714; the chiefh7225 of their strengthh202 in the tabernaclesh168 of Hamh2526:

52

But made his own peopleh5971 to go forthh5265h8686 like sheeph6629, and guidedh5090h8762 them in the wildernessh4057 like a flockh5739.

53

And he ledh5148h8686 them on safelyh983, so that they fearedh6342h8804 not: but the seah3220 overwhelmedh3680h8765 their enemiesh341h8802. overwhelmed: Heb. covered

54

And he broughth935h8686 them to the borderh1366 of his sanctuaryh6944, even to this mountainh2022, which his right handh3225 had purchasedh7069h8804.

55

He cast outh1644h8762 the heathenh1471 also beforeh6440 them, and dividedh5307h8686 them an inheritanceh5159 by lineh2256, and made the tribesh7626 of Israelh3478 to dwellh7931h8686 in their tentsh168.

56

Yet they temptedh5254h8762 and provokedh4784h8686 the most highh5945 Godh430, and kepth8104h8804 not his testimoniesh5713:

57

But turned backh5472h8735, and dealt unfaithfullyh898h8799 like their fathersh1: they were turned asideh2015h8738 like a deceitfulh7423 bowh7198.

58

For they provoked him to angerh3707h8686 with their high placesh1116, and moved him to jealousyh7065h8686 with their graven imagesh6456.

59

When Godh430 heardh8085h8804 this , he was wrothh5674h8691, and greatlyh3966 abhorredh3988h8799 Israelh3478:

60

So that he forsookh5203h8799 the tabernacleh4908 of Shilohh7887, the tenth168 which he placedh7931h8765 among menh120;

61

And deliveredh5414h8799 his strengthh5797 into captivityh7628, and his gloryh8597 into the enemy'sh6862 handh3027.

62

He gaveh5462 his peopleh5971 overh5462h8686 also unto the swordh2719; and was wrothh5674h8694 with his inheritanceh5159.

63

The fireh784 consumedh398h8804 their young menh970; and their maidensh1330 were not given to marriageh1984h8795. given...: Heb. praised

64

Their priestsh3548 fellh5307h8804 by the swordh2719; and their widowsh490 made no lamentationh1058h8799.

65

Then the Lordh136 awakedh3364h8799 as one out of sleeph3463, and like a mighty manh1368 that shoutethh7442h8711 by reason of wineh3196.

66

And he smoteh5221h8686 his enemiesh6862 in the hinder partsh268: he puth5414h8804 them to a perpetualh5769 reproachh2781.

67

Moreover he refusedh3988h8799 the tabernacleh168 of Josephh3130, and choseh977h8804 not the tribeh7626 of Ephraimh669:

68

But choseh977h8799 the tribeh7626 of Judahh3063, the mounth2022 Zionh6726 which he lovedh157h8804.

69

And he builth1129h8799 his sanctuaryh4720 like highh7311h8802 palaces , like the earthh776 which he hath establishedh3245h8804 for everh5769. established: Heb. founded

70

He choseh977h8799 Davidh1732 also his servanth5650, and tookh3947h8799 him from the sheepfoldsh4356h6629:

71

From followingh310 the ewes great with youngh5763h8802 he broughth935h8689 him to feedh7462h8800 Jacobh3290 his peopleh5971, and Israelh3478 his inheritanceh5159. following: Heb. after

72

So he fedh7462h8686 them according to the integrityh8537 of his hearth3824; and guidedh5148h8686 them by the skilfulnessh8394 of his handsh3709.
