Psalms 78:8

And 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.

KJV

Ne memineris iniquitatum nostrarum antiquarum ; cito anticipent nos misericordiæ tuæ, quia pauperes facti sumus nimis.

Vulgate

μὴ μνησθῇς ἡμῶν ἀνομιῶν ἀρχαίων· ταχὺ προκαταλαβέτωσαν ἡμᾶς οἱ οἰκτειρμοί σου, ὅτι ἐπτωχεύσαμεν σφόδρα.

LXX

And 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.

ASV

וְ/לֹ֤א יִהְי֨וּ כַּ/אֲבוֹתָ֗/ם דּוֹר֮ סוֹרֵ֪ר וּ/מֹ֫רֶ֥ה דּ֭וֹר לֹא הֵכִ֣ין לִבּ֑/וֹ וְ/לֹא נֶאֶמְנָ֖ה אֶת אֵ֣ל רוּחֽ/וֹ
