Deuteronomy 31:9-26

9And MosesH4872 wroteH3789 this lawH8451, and delivered it to the priestsH3548, the sonsH1121 of LeviH3878, who boreH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah, and to all the eldersH2205 of IsraelH3478.

10And MosesH4872 commandedH6680 them, sayingH559, At the endH7093 of every sevenH7651 yearsH8141, at the set timeH4150 of the yearH8141 of release, at the feastH2282 of tabernacles,

11whenH834 all IsraelH3478 cometh to appearH7200 before Jehovah thy 1GodH430 in the placeH4725 which he will chooseH977, thou shalt readH7121 this lawH8451 before all IsraelH3478 in their earsH241.

12Gather the peopleH5971 togetherH6950, the menH376, and the womenH802, and the children, and thy stranger that is within thy gatesH8179, that they may hearH8085, and that they may learnH3925, and fearH3372 Jehovah your 2GodH430, and takeH8104 heed to do all the wordsH1697 of this lawH8451;

13and that their children who do not knowH3045 it may hearH8085 it and learnH3925, that they may fearH3372 Jehovah your 3GodH430, as long as ye live in the landH127, whereunto ye passH5674 over the JordanH3383 to possessH3423 it.

14And Jehovah saidH559 to MosesH4872, Lo, the daysH3117 are near for thee to dieH4191; callH7121 JoshuaH3091, and presentH7126 yourselves at the tentH168 of meetingH4150, that I may give him a charge. And MosesH4872 and JoshuaH3091 went and presentedH7126 themselves at the tentH168 of meetingH4150.

15And Jehovah appearedH7200 at the tentH168 in the pillarH5982 of cloudH6051; and the pillarH5982 of cloudH6051 stoodH5975 over the entranceH6607 to the tentH168.

16And Jehovah saidH559 to MosesH4872, Behold, thou shalt sleep with thy fathersH1; and this peopleH5971 will riseH6965 up, and goH935 a whoring after the strange 4godsH430 of the landH776 into which they enter, and will forsakeH5800 me, and breakH6565 my covenantH1285 which I have madeH3772 with them.

17And my angerH639 shall beH1961 kindled against them in that dayH3117, and I will forsakeH5800 them, and I will hideH5641 my faceH6440 from them, and they shall beH1961 devouredH398, and manyH7227 evils and troubles shall befall them, and they will sayH559 in that dayH3117, Have not these evils befallen me because my 5GodH430 is not in my midstH7130?

18And I will entirely hideH5641 my faceH6440 in that dayH3117 for all the evils that they have wrought, because they turnedH6437 unto otherH312 6godsH430.

19And nowH6258, writeH3789 ye this songH7892, and teachH3925 it to the children of IsraelH3478; putH7760 it in their mouthsH6310, that this songH7892 may beH1961 a witnessH5707 for me against the children of IsraelH3478.

20For I shall bringH935 them into the landH127 which I sworeH7650 unto their fathersH1, which floweth with milkH2461 and honeyH1706; and they will eatH398 and fill themselves, and wax fatH1878, and will turnH6437 unto otherH312 7godsH430, and serveH5647 them, and despise me, and breakH6565 my covenantH1285.

21And it shall comeH935 to pass, when manyH7227 evils and troubles have befallen them, that this songH7892 shall testifyH6030 against them as a witnessH5707; for it shall not beH1961 forgottenH7911 out of the mouthsH6310 of their seedH2233; for I knowH3045 their imagination which they are forming already this dayH3117, before I bringH935 them into the landH776 which I have swornH7650 [unto them].

22And MosesH4872 wroteH3789 this songH7892 the same dayH3117, and taughtH3925 it to the children of IsraelH3478.

23And [Jehovah] commandedH6680 JoshuaH3091 the sonH1121 of NunH5126, and saidH559, BeH1961 strongH2388 and courageousH553; for thou shalt bringH935 the children of IsraelH3478 into the landH776 which I have swornH7650 unto them; and I will beH1961 with thee.

24And it came to pass, when MosesH4872 had endedH8552 writingH3789 the wordsH1697 of this lawH8451 in a bookH5612, until their conclusion,

25that MosesH4872 commandedH6680 the LevitesH3881, who boreH5375 the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah, sayingH559,

26TakeH3947 this bookH5612 of the lawH8451, and putH7760 it at the sideH6654 of the arkH727 of the covenantH1285 of Jehovah your 8GodH430, that it may beH1961 there for a witnessH5707 against thee;
