Psalms 78:1

Give ear, O my people, to my instruction; listen to the words of my mouth.

2 I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things hidden from the beginning,

3 that we have heard and known and our fathers have relayed to us.

Do read the surrounding verses too, because the context often says more than a single verse.
