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;

6That the generation to come might know [them], even the children that should be born; Who should arise and tell [them] to their children,

7That they might set their hope in God, And not forget the works of God, But keep his commandments,

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.

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 they forgat his doings, And his wondrous works that he had showed them.
