1 Maschil of Asaph. Give ear, O my people, to my law: Incline your{} ears to the words of my mouth.

2 I will open my mouth in a parable; I will gush out dark sayings of old,

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

4 We will not hide them from their sons, Telling to the generation to come the praises of Yahweh, And his strength, and his wondrous works that he has done.
