05:031:020 For when I shall have brought them into the land which I sware unto their fathers, that floweth 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 provoke me, and break my covenant. 05:031:021 And it shall come to pass, when many evils and troubles are befallen them, that this song shall testify against 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. 05:031:022 Moses therefore wrote this song the same day, and taught it the children of Israel. 05:031:023 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. 05:031:024 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, 05:031:025 That Moses commanded the Levites, which bare the ark of the covenant of the LORD, saying, 05:031:026 Take this book of the law, and put it in the side of the ark of the covenant of the LORD your God, that it may be there for a witness against thee. 05:031:027 For I know thy rebellion, and thy stiff neck: behold, while I am yet alive with you this day, ye have been rebellious against the LORD; and how much more after my death? 05:031:028 Gather unto me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their ears, and call heaven and earth to record against them. 05:031:029 For I know that after my death ye will utterly corrupt yourselves, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you; and evil will befall you in the latter days; because ye will do evil in the sight of the LORD, to provoke him to anger through the work of your hands. 05:031:030 And Moses spake in the ears of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song, until they were ended. 05:032:001 Give ear, O ye heavens, and I will speak; and hear, O earth, the words of my mouth. 05:032:002 My doctrine shall drop as the rain, my speech shall distil as the dew, as the small rain upon the tender herb, and as the showers upon the grass: 05:032:003 Because I will publish the name of the LORD: ascribe ye greatness unto our God. 05:032:004 He is the Rock, his work is perfect: for all his ways are judgment: a God of truth and without iniquity, just and right is he.
