Psalms 78

1Give ear, O my people, to my law: incline your ears to the words of my mouth.

מַשְׂכִּיל לְאָסָף הַאֲזִינָה עַמִּי תֹּורָתִי הַטּוּ אָזְנְכֶם לְאִמְרֵי־פִי׃ (2294)

2I will open my mouth in a parable: I will utter dark sayings of old:

אֶפְתְּחָה בְמָשָׁל פִּי אַבִּיעָה חִידֹות מִנִּי־קֶדֶם׃ (1716)

3Which we have heard and known, and our fathers have told us.

אֲשֶׁר מַעְנוּ וַנֵּדָעֵם וַאֲבֹותֵינוּ סִפְּרוּ־לָנוּ׃ (1750)

4We will not hide them from their children, shewing to the generation to come the praises of the LORD, and his strength, and his wonderful works that he hath done.

לֹא נְכַחֵד ׀ מִבְּנֵיהֶם לְדֹור אַחֲרֹון מְסַפְּרִים תְּהִלֹּות יְהוָה וֶעֱזוּזֹו וְנִפְלְאֹותָיו אֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה׃ (3629)

5For 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:

וַיָּקֶם עֵדוּת ׀ בְּיַעֲקֹב וְתֹורָה שָׂם בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל אֲשֶׁר צִוָּה אֶת־אֲבֹותֵינוּ לְהֹודִיעָם לִבְנֵיהֶם׃ (4100)

6That the generation to come might know them, even the children which should be born; who should arise and declare them to their children:

לְמַעַן יֵדְעוּ ׀ דֹּור אַחֲרֹון בָּנִים יִוָּלֵדוּ יָקֻמוּ וִיסַפְּרוּ לִבְנֵיהֶם׃ (1568)

7That they might set their hope in God, and not forget the works of God, but keep his commandments:

וְיָשִׂימוּ בֵאלֹהִים כִּסְלָם וְלֹא יִשְׁכְּחוּ מַעַלְלֵי־אֵל וּמִצְוֹתָיו יִנְצֹרוּ׃ (2116)

8And might not be as their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation; a generation that set not their heart aright, and whose spirit was not stedfast with God.

וְלֹא יִהְיוּ ׀ כַּאֲבֹותָם דֹּור סֹורֵר וּמֹרֶה דֹּור לֹא־הֵכִין לִבֹּו וְלֹא־נֶאֶמְנָה אֶת־אֵל רוּחֹו׃ (2663)

9The children of Ephraim, being armed, and carrying bows, turned back in the day of battle.

10They kept not the covenant of God, and refused to walk in his law;

11And forgat his works, and his wonders that he had shewed them.

12Marvellous things did he in the sight of their fathers, in the land of Egypt, in the field of Zoan.

נֶגֶד אֲבֹותָם עָשָׂה פֶלֶא בְּאֶרֶץ מִצְרַיִם שְׂדֵה־צֹעַן׃ (2184)

13He divided the sea, and caused them to pass through; and he made the waters to stand as an heap.

בָּקַע יָם וַיַּעֲבִירֵם וַיַּצֶּב־מַיִם כְּמֹו־נֵד׃ (878)

14In the daytime also he led them with a cloud, and all the night with a light of fire.

וַיַּנְחֵם בֶּעָנָן יֹומָם וְכָל־הַלַּיְלָה בְּאֹור אֵשׁ׃ (1028)

15He clave the rocks in the wilderness, and gave them drink as out of the great depths.

16He brought streams also out of the rock, and caused waters to run down like rivers.

17And they sinned yet more against him by provoking the most High in the wilderness.

19Yea, they spake against God; they said, Can God furnish a table in the wilderness?

וַיְדַבְּרוּ בֵּאלֹהִים אָמְרוּ הֲיוּכַל אֵל לַעֲרֹךְ לְחָן בַּמִּדְבָּר׃ (1321)

20Behold, he smote the rock, that the waters gushed out, and the streams overflowed; can he give bread also? can he provide flesh for his people?

הֵן הִכָּה־צוּר ׀ וַיָּזוּבוּ מַיִם וּנְחָלִים יִשְׁטֹפוּ הֲגַם־לֶחֶם יוּכַל תֵּת אִם־יָכִין שְׁאֵר לְעַמֹּו׃ (2827)

21Therefore the LORD heard this, and was wroth: so a fire was kindled against Jacob, and anger also came up against Israel;

לָכֵן ׀ שָׁמַע יְהוָה וַיִּתְעַבָּר וְאֵשׁ נִשְּׂקָה בְיַעֲקֹב וְגַם־אַף עָלָה בְיִשְׂרָאֵל׃ (2948)

22Because they believed not in God, and trusted not in his salvation:

23Though he had commanded the clouds from above, and opened the doors of heaven,

See also: Psalms 103:20, Exodus 16:8, Matthew 14:20, Matthew 15:37

26He caused an east wind to blow in the heaven: and by his power he brought in the south wind.

See also: Numbers 11:31, Exodus 10:13, Jeremiah 51:16, Acts 27:13, Psalms 135:7, Revelation 16:2

27He rained flesh also upon them as dust, and feathered fowls like as the sand of the sea:

28And he let it fall in the midst of their camp, round about their habitations.

וַיַּפֵּל בְּקֶרֶב מַחֲנֵהוּ סָבִיב לְמִשְׁכְּנֹתָיו׃ (1469)

29So they did eat, and were well filled: for he gave them their own desire;

וַיֹּאכְלוּ וַיִּשְׂבְּעוּ מְאֹד וְתַאֲוָתָם יָבִא לָהֶם׃ (1453)

See also: Numbers 11:19-20, Jude 1:12, 1 Samuel 12:13, Psalms 106:15

30They were not estranged from their lust. But while their meat was yet in their mouths,

See also: Job 20:23, 1 John 2:16, Numbers 11:33, Ezekiel 7:19, Daniel 5:5, Luke 12:20, 1 Corinthians 11:30, Numbers 22:20, Psalms 106:14, Proverbs 1:32, Luke 16:19-23

31The wrath of God came upon them, and slew the fattest of them, and smote down the chosen men of Israel.

וְאַף אֱלֹהִים ׀ עָלָה בָהֶם וַיַּהֲרֹג בְּמִשְׁמַנֵּיהֶם וּבַחוּרֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל הִכְרִיעַ׃ (2114)

See also: Job 15:27, Psalms 22:29, Ephesians 5:6, Psalms 78:21

32For all this they sinned still, and believed not for his wondrous works.

בְּכָל־זֹאת חָטְאוּ־עֹוד וְלֹא־הֶאֱמִינוּ בְּנִפְלְאֹותָיו׃ (1298)

See also: Hebrews 11:6, Numbers 14:11, John 12:37, 1 Corinthians 10:5, Psalms 78:22, Ezekiel 20:13, Luke 16:31, John 20:25, Numbers 14:1-45, Psalms 78:11, Numbers 16:1-17, Numbers 21:1-6, Numbers 25:1-18, 2 Kings 17:14, Psalms 78:17

33Therefore their days did he consume in vanity, and their years in trouble.

וַיְכַל־בַּהֶבֶל יְמֵיהֶם וּשְׁנֹותָם בַּבֶּהָלָה׃ (1056)

34When he slew them, then they sought him: and they returned and enquired early after God.

אִם־הֲרָגָם וּדְרָשׁוּהוּ וְשָׁבוּ וְשִׁחֲרוּ־אֵל׃ (1681)

35And they remembered that God was their rock, and the high God their redeemer.

וַיִּזְכְּרוּ כִּי־אֱלֹהִים צוּרָם וְאֵל עֶלְיֹון גֹּאֲלָם׃ (978)

36Nevertheless they did flatter him with their mouth, and they lied unto him with their tongues.

37For their heart was not right with him, neither were they stedfast in his covenant.

38But he, being full of compassion, forgave their iniquity, and destroyed them not: yea, many a time turned he his anger away, and did not stir up all his wrath.

וְהוּא רַחוּם ׀ יְכַפֵּר עָוֹן וְלֹא־יַשְׁחִית וְהִרְבָּה לְהָשִׁיב אַפֹּו וְלֹא־יָעִיר כָּל־חֲמָתֹו׃ (2956)

39For he remembered that they were but flesh; a wind that passeth away, and cometh not again.

כַּמָּה יַמְרוּהוּ בַמִּדְבָּר יַעֲצִיבוּהוּ בִּישִׁימֹון׃ (1197)

41Yea, they turned back and tempted God, and limited the Holy One of Israel.

וַיָּשׁוּבוּ וַיְנַסּוּ אֵל וּקְדֹושׁ יִשְׂרָאֵל הִתְווּ׃ (1867)

42They remembered not his hand, nor the day when he delivered them from the enemy.

43How he had wrought his signs in Egypt, and his wonders in the field of Zoan.

אֲשֶׁר־שָׂם בְּמִצְרַיִם אֹתֹותָיו וּמֹופְתָיו בִּשְׂדֵה־צֹעַן׃ (3115)

44And had turned their rivers into blood; and their floods, that they could not drink.

See also: Deuteronomy 4:34, Exodus 9:6, Exodus 9:19, Exodus 9:28, Psalms 18:13

49He cast upon them the fierceness of his anger, wrath, and indignation, and trouble, by sending evil angels among them.

יְשַׁלַּח־בָּם ׀ חֲרֹון אַפֹּו עֶבְרָה וָזַעַם וְצָרָה מִשְׁלַחַת מַלְאֲכֵי רָעִים׃ (2641)

50He made a way to his anger; he spared not their soul from death, but gave their life over to the pestilence;

יְפַלֵּס נָתִיב לְאַפֹּו לֹא־חָשַׂךְ מִמָּוֶת נַפְשָׁם וְחַיָּתָם לַדֶּבֶר הִסְגִּיר׃ (3052)

51And smote all the firstborn in Egypt; the chief of their strength in the tabernacles of Ham:

וַיַּךְ כָּל־בְּכֹור בְּמִצְרָיִם רֵאשִׁית אֹונִים בְּאָהֳלֵי־חָם׃ (1810)

52But made his own people to go forth like sheep, and guided them in the wilderness like a flock.

וַיַּסַּע כַּצֹּאן עַמֹּו וַיְנַהֲגֵם כַּעֵדֶר בַּמִּדְבָּר׃ (1079)

53And he led them on safely, so that they feared not: but the sea overwhelmed their enemies.

וַיַּנְחֵם לָבֶטַח וְלֹא פָחָדוּ וְאֶת־אֹויְבֵיהֶם כִּסָּה הַיָּם׃ (919)

54And he brought them to the border of his sanctuary, even to this mountain, which his right hand had purchased.

55He cast out the heathen also before them, and divided them an inheritance by line, and made the tribes of Israel to dwell in their tents.

וַיְגָרֶשׁ מִפְּנֵיהֶם ׀ גֹּויִם וַיַּפִּילֵם בְּחֶבֶל נַחֲלָה וַיַּשְׁכֵּן בְּאָהֳלֵיהֶם שִׁבְטֵי יִשְׂרָאֵל׃ (2455)

56Yet they tempted and provoked the most high God, and kept not his testimonies:

וַיְנַסּוּ וַיַּמְרוּ אֶת־אֱלֹהִים עֶלְיֹון וְעֵדֹותָיו לֹא שָׁמָרוּ׃ (2126)

57But turned back, and dealt unfaithfully like their fathers: they were turned aside like a deceitful bow.

וַיִּסֹּגוּ וַיִּבְגְּדוּ כַּאֲבֹותָם נֶהְפְּכוּ כְּקֶשֶׁת רְמִיָּה׃ (1821)

58For they provoked him to anger with their high places, and moved him to jealousy with their graven images.

וַיַּכְעִיסוּהוּ בְּבָמֹותָם וּבִפְסִילֵיהֶם יַקְנִיאוּהוּ׃ (1114)
