1
Give ear, O my people, to my teaching; incline your ears to the words of my mouth.
2
I will open my mouth in a parable; I will speak mysteries of old,
3
which we have heard and known, that our fathers have told us.
4
We will not hide them from their children, but tell the generation to come the praises of the Lord, and His strength and the wonderful works that He has done.
5
For He established a testimony in Jacob and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our fathers to teach to their children,
6
that the generation to come might know them, the children yet to be born, that they may arise and declare them to their children,
7
so that they should set their hope in God and not forget the works of God, but keep His commandments;
8
and that they may not be like their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, a generation that did not set its heart aright, whose spirit was not faithful to God.
9
The Ephraimites, being armed with bows, turned back in the day of battle.
10
They did not keep the covenant of God and refused to walk in His law;
11
they forgot His works and the wonders that He had shown them.
12
In the sight of their fathers He performed marvelous wonders in the land of Egypt, in the fields of Zoan.
13
He divided the sea and caused them to pass through, and He made the waters stand up like a heap.
14
In the daytime He led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire.
15
He split rocks in the wilderness and gave them plenty to drink like the depths.
16
He brought streams also out of the rock and caused waters to run down like rivers.
17
But they sinned still more against Him by rebelling against the Most High in the desert.
18
They tested God in their heart by asking for the food they craved.
19
Then they spoke against God, saying, “Can God prepare a table in the wilderness?
20
Behold, He struck the rock, so that the waters gushed out and the streams overflowed. Can He give bread also? Will He provide meat for His people?”
21
Therefore the Lord heard this and was full of wrath; a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel,
22
because they did not believe in God and did not trust in His salvation.
23
Yet He had commanded the skies above and opened the doors of heaven,
24
and He rained down manna upon them to eat and gave them the grain of heaven.
25
Men ate the bread of angels; He sent them food in abundance.
26
He caused an east wind to blow in the heavens, and by His power He directed the south wind.
27
He rained meat on them like dust, winged birds like the sand of the seas;
28
then He let them fall in the midst of their camp, all around their dwellings.
29
So they ate and were well filled, for He gave them their own desire.
30
They were not separated from their desire; but while their food was still in their mouths,
31
the wrath of God came upon them, and He killed the strongest of them and struck down the young men of Israel.
32
For all this they still sinned, and did not believe in His wondrous works.
33
Therefore their days did He consume like a breath, and their years in terror.
34
When He killed them, then they sought Him; they turned back and sought earnestly for God.
35
They remembered that God was their rock, and the Most High God their Redeemer.
36
Nevertheless they flattered Him with their mouths, and they lied to Him with their tongues;
37
for their heart was not steadfast toward Him, nor were they faithful in His covenant.
38
But He, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity and did not destroy them. He often restrained His anger, and did not stir up all His wrath;
39
for He remembered that they were but flesh, a wind that passes away and does not return.
40
How often they provoked Him in the wilderness and grieved Him in the desert!
41
Again and again they tested God, and provoked the Holy One of Israel.
42
They did not remember His power, nor the day when He redeemed them from the enemy,
43
when He performed His signs in Egypt and His wonders in the fields of Zoan,
44
and turned their rivers into blood, so that they could not drink of their streams.
45
He sent swarms of flies among them, which devoured them, and frogs, which destroyed them.
46
He gave their crops to the grasshopper and the fruit of their labor to the locust.
47
He destroyed their vines with hail and their sycamore trees with frost.
48
He gave up their cattle to the hail and their flocks to fiery lightning.
49
He cast upon them the fierceness of His anger, wrath, indignation, and distress, by sending angels of destruction.
50
He made a path for His anger; He did not spare them from death, but gave their lives over to the plague,
51
and struck down all the firstborn in Egypt, the first fruits of their strength in the tents of Ham.
52
But He led forth His own people like sheep and guided them in the wilderness like a flock;
53
He led them on safely, so that they were not afraid, but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.
54
He brought them to His holy border, to the mountain which His right hand had acquired.
55
He cast out the nations before them, and divided for them their tribal allotments, and made the tribes of Israel dwell in their tents.
56
Yet they tested and provoked the Most High God, and did not keep His testimonies,
57
but turned back and acted unfaithfully like their fathers; they turned aside like a deceitful bow.
58
For they provoked Him to anger with their high places and moved Him to jealousy with their graven images.
59
When God heard this, He was filled with wrath and greatly abhorred Israel,
60
so that He forsook the tabernacle at Shiloh, the tent where He dwelt among men,
61
and delivered His strength to captivity and His glory to the enemy’s hand.
62
He gave His people over to the sword, and was filled with wrath at His inheritance.
63
The fire consumed their young men, and their young women were not given in marriage.
64
Their priests fell by the sword, and their widows made no lamentation.
65
Then the Lord awoke as one out of sleep, like a mighty man who shouts because of wine.
66
He routed His enemies back; He made them a perpetual reproach.
67
Moreover, He rejected the tent of Joseph, and did not choose the tribe of Ephraim,
68
but chose the tribe of Judah, Mount Zion which He loves.
69
He built His sanctuary like the high heavens, like the earth that He has established forever.
70
He chose David His servant and took him from the sheepfolds;
71
from following the nursing ewes He brought him to shepherd Jacob His people, and Israel His inheritance.
72
So he shepherded them according to the integrity of his heart and guided them by the skillfulness of his hands.
