Deuteronomy 31:19-21 Now, therefore, write ye for you this Song, and teach it unto the sons of Israel, put it in their mouths,––that this Song may become for me, a witness, against the sons of Israel.

Rotherham⁽ⁱ⁾ ¹⁹ Now, therefore, write ye for you this Song, and teach it unto the sons of Israel, put it in their mouths,––that this Song may become for me, a witness, against the sons of Israel. ²⁰ When I bring them upon the soil which I sware unto their fathers, flowing with milk and honey, and they shall eat and be filled, and wax fat, then will they turn away unto other gods and serve them, and despise me, and break my covenant. ²¹ And it shall come to pass, when many calamities and misfortunes shall find them out, then shall this Song respond to their face, as a witness, for it shall not be forgotten out of the mouth of their seed, for I know their imagination, which they are forming today, ere yet I bring them into the land of which I sware unto their fathers.
