LEB(i)
19 "And so then write this song for yourselves and teach it to the ⌊Israelites⌋;* put it in their mouth, so that this song may be for me as a witness against the ⌊Israelites⌋.*
20 For when I bring them* into the land that I swore to their* ancestors,* a land flowing with milk and honey, ⌊they will eat their fill⌋,* and they* will become fat, and then they* will turn to other gods, and they will serve them, and they will spurn me, and they* will break my covenant.
21 ⌊And then⌋* many disasters and troubles will come upon them,* and this song will give evidence before them* as a witness, because it will not be forgotten from out of the mouth of their descendants,* for I know their* inclination that they* are having ⌊today⌋* before I have brought them* into the land that I swore."
22 And Moses wrote this song on that day and taught it to the ⌊Israelites⌋.*
23 Then he* told Joshua the son of Nun, and said to him, "Be strong and be courageous, for you shall bring the ⌊Israelites⌋* into the land that I swore to them, and I will be with you."
24 ⌊And then when Moses finished writing⌋* the words of this law on the scroll ⌊until they were complete⌋,*
25 then Moses commanded the Levites carrying the ark of the covenant of Yahweh, ⌊saying⌋,*
26 "Take the scroll of this law and put it at the side of the ark of the covenant of Yahweh your God, and it will be there as a witness against you.
27 For I know your rebellion and your stiff neck even now while I am still alive with you ⌊today⌋,* rebelling against Yahweh, and ⌊how much more⌋* after my death.
28 Assemble to me all the elders of your tribes and your officials, so that I may speak in their ears these words, and that I may call as witness against them heaven and earth.
29 For I know that after my death you will certainly act corruptly, and you will turn aside from the way that I have commanded you, and the disaster in the future days will befall you, because you will do evil* in the eyes of Yahweh, ⌊provoking him with the work of your hands⌋."*
