Day 1 · I Will Open My Mouth in Parables
Psalm 78:1–8
1Give ear, O my people, to my instruction; listen to the words of my mouth. 2I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the beginning, 3that we have heard and known and our fathers have relayed to us. 4We will not hide them from their children, but will declare to the next generation the praises of the LORD and His might, and the wonders He has performed. 5For He established a testimony in Jacob and appointed a law in Israel, which He commanded our fathers to teach to their children, 6that the coming generation would know them— even children yet to be born— to arise and tell their own children 7that they should put their confidence in God, not forgetting His works, but keeping His commandments. 8Then they will not be like their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, whose heart was not loyal, whose spirit was not faithful to God.
