19 H3789 Now therefore write [H8798] H7892 ye this song H3925 for you, and teach [H8761] H1121 it the children H3478 of Israel H7760 : put [H8798] H6310 it in their mouths H7892 , that this song H5707 may be a witness H1121 for me against the children H3478 of Israel.

20 H935 For when I shall have brought [H8686] H127 them into the land H7650 which I sware [H8738] H1 unto their fathers H2100 , that floweth [H8802] H2461 with milk H1706 and honey H398 ; and they shall have eaten [H8804] H7646 and filled [H8804] H1878 themselves, and waxen fat [H8804] H6437 ; then will they turn [H8804] H312 unto other H430 gods H5647 , and serve [H8804] H5006 them, and provoke [H8765] H6565 me, and break [H8689] H1285 my covenant.

21 H7227 And it shall come to pass, when many H7451 evils H6869 and troubles H4672 are befallen [H8799] H7892 them, that this song H6030 shall testify [H8804] H6440 against H5707 them as a witness H7911 ; for it shall not be forgotten [H8735] H6310 out of the mouths H2233 of their seed H3045 : for I know [H8804] H3336 their imagination H6213 which they go about [H8802] H3117 , even now H935 , before I have brought [H8686] H776 them into the land H7650 which I sware [H8738] .

22 H4872 Moses H3789 therefore wrote [H8799] H7892 this song H3117 the same day H3925 , and taught [H8762] H1121 it the children H3478 of Israel.

23 H3091 And he gave Joshua H1121 the son H5126 of Nun H6680 a charge [H8762] H559 , and said [H8799] H2388 , Be strong [H8798] H553 and of a good courage [H8798] H935 : for thou shalt bring [H8686] H1121 the children H3478 of Israel H776 into the land H7650 which I sware [H8738] unto them: and I will be with thee.

24 H4872 And it came to pass, when Moses H3615 had made an end [H8763] H3789 of writing [H8800] H1697 the words H8451 of this law H5612 in a book H8552 , until they were finished [H8800] ,

25 H4872 That Moses H6680 commanded [H8762] H3881 the Levites H5375 , which bare [H8802] H727 the ark H1285 of the covenant H3068 of the LORD H559 , saying [H8800] ,

26 H3947 Take [H8800] H5612 this book H8451 of the law H7760 , and put [H8804] H6654 it in the side H727 of the ark H1285 of the covenant H3068 of the LORD H430 your God H5707 , that it may be there for a witness against thee.

ERV⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁹ Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach thou it the children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel. ²⁰ For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, flowing with milk and honey; and they shall have eaten and filled themselves, and waxen fat; then will they turn unto other gods, and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant. ²¹ And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are come upon them, that this song shall testify before them as a witness; for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their seed: for I know their imagination which they go about, even now, before I have brought them into the land which I sware. ²² So Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel. ²³ And he gave Joshua the son of Nun a charge, and said, Be strong and of a good courage: for thou shalt bring the children of Israel into the land which I sware unto them: and I will be with thee. ²⁴ And it came to pass, when Moses had made an end of writing the words of this law in a book, until they were finished, ²⁵ that Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, saying, ²⁶ Take this book of the law, and put it by the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee.
