5The Lord made an agreement with Jacob

and gave the teachings to Israel,

which he commanded our ancestors

to teach to their children.

6Then their children would know them,

even their children not yet born.

And they would tell their children.

7So they would all trust God

and would not forget what he had done

but would obey his commands.

He established a testimony in Jacob

and appointed a law in Israel,

which he commanded our fathers

to teach to their children,

that the next generation might know them,

the children yet unborn,

and arise and tell them to their children,

so that they should set their hope in God

and not forget the works of God,

but keep his commandments;

He decreed statutes for Jacob

and established the law in Israel,

which he commanded our ancestors

to teach their children,

so the next generation would know them,

even the children yet to be born,

and they in turn would tell their children.

Then they would put their trust in God

and would not forget his deeds

but would keep his commands.

CSBChristian Standard Bible

He established a testimony in Jacob

and set up a law in Israel,

which he commanded our ancestors

to teach to their children

so that a future generation—

children yet to be born—might know.

They were to rise and tell their children

so that they might put their confidence in God

and not forget God’s works,

but keep his commands.

NLTNew Living Translation

For he issued his laws to Jacob;

he gave his instructions to Israel.

He commanded our ancestors

to teach them to their children,

so the next generation might know them—

even the children not yet born—

and they in turn will teach their own children.

So each generation should set its hope anew on God,

not forgetting his glorious miracles

and obeying his commands.

For he established a testimony in Jacob,

And appointed a law in Israel,

Which he commanded our fathers,

That they should make them known to their children:

Who should arise and declare them to their children:

That they might set their hope in God,

And not forget the works of God,

But keep his commandments:
