Lessons From Israel's Past

6 so that a future generation—
children yet to be born—might know.
They were to rise and tell their children
7 so that they might put their confidence in God
and not forget God’s works,
but keep His commands.

a stubborn and rebellious generation,
a generation whose heart was not loyal
and whose spirit was not faithful to God.
