31:1When Moses finished speaking these words to all Israel, Compare
31:2He said to them, I am a hundred and twenty years old today; I can no longer go out and come in, and Jehovah has said to me, You shall not cross over this Jordan. Compare
31:3It is Jehovah your God who is crossing over before you; it is He who will destroy these nations from before you, and you will dispossess them. Joshua is the one who is crossing over before you, as Jehovah has spoken. Compare
31:4And Jehovah will do to them even as He did to Sihon and Og, the kings of the Amorites, and to their land when He destroyed them. Compare
31:5And Jehovah will deliver them up before you, and you will do to them according to the whole commandment, which I have commanded you. Compare
31:6Be strong and take courage; do not fear, neither be terrified of them, for it is Jehovah your God who goes with you; He will not fail you nor forsake you. Compare
31:7And Moses called Joshua and said to him in the sight of all Israel, Be strong and take courage, for you will go with this people into the land which Jehovah swore to their fathers to give them; and you will cause them to inherit it. Compare
31:8But it is Jehovah who is going before you. He will be with you; He will not fail you nor forsake you. Do not fear, neither be dismayed. Compare
31:9And Moses wrote this law and gave it to the priests, the sons of Levi, who bear the Ark of the Covenant of Jehovah, and to all the elders of Israel. Compare
31:10And Moses commanded them, saying, At the end of every seven years, at the appointed time of the year of release, at the Feast of Tabernacles, Compare
31:11When all Israel comes to appear before Jehovah your God in the place which He will choose, you shall read this law before all Israel in their hearing. Compare
31:12Gather the people, the men, the women, and the little ones, and the sojourner with you, who is within your gates, that they may hear and that they may learn to fear Jehovah your God and be certain to do all the words of this law, Compare
31:13And that their children, who have not known these things, may hear and learn to fear Jehovah your God all the days that you live upon the land into which you are crossing over the Jordan to possess. Compare
31:14And Jehovah said to Moses, Now your days draw near for you to die. Call Joshua and present yourselves in the Tent of Meeting that I may charge him. So Moses went with Joshua, and they presented themselves in the Tent of Meeting. Compare
31:15And Jehovah appeared in the tent in a pillar of cloud; and the pillar of cloud stood over the entrance of the tent. Compare
31:16And Jehovah said to Moses, You are now about to lie down with your fathers; and this people will rise up and go as harlots after the strange gods of the land, into the midst of which they are entering; and they will forsake Me and break My covenant which I made with them. Compare
31:17And My anger will burn against them in that day, and I will forsake them and hide My face from them; and they will be devoured, and many evils and troubles will befall them, so that they will say in that day, Is it not because our God is not in our midst that these evils have befallen us? Compare
31:18And I will surely hide My face in that day because of all the evil which they have done, for they turned to other gods. Compare
31:19And now write for yourselves this song and teach it to the children of Israel; put it in their mouth that I may have this song as a witness against the children of Israel. Compare
31:20For I will bring them into the land which I swore to their fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey, and they will eat and become satisfied and grow fat, and they will turn to other gods and serve them and despise Me and break My covenant. Compare
31:21And when many evils and troubles befall them, this song will respond as a witness before them, because it will not be forgotten in the mouth of their seed; for I know their intention, which they are making even today before I bring them into the land which I have sworn to them. Compare
31:22So Moses wrote this song on that day and taught it to the children of Israel. Compare
31:23And He charged Joshua the son of Nun and said, Be strong and take courage, for you will bring the children of Israel into the land which I have sworn to them; and I will be with you. Compare
31:24And when Moses finished writing the words of this law in a book until they were completed, Compare
31:25Moses charged the Levites who bear the Ark of the Covenant of Jehovah, saying, Compare
31:26Take this book of the law and place it at the side of the Ark of the Covenant of Jehovah your God, that it may be there as a witness against you. Compare
31:27For I know your rebelliousness and your stiff neck: See, while I am yet here alive with you today, you have been rebelling against Jehovah; so how much more after my death! Compare
31:28Gather to me all the elders of your tribes and your officers, that I may speak in their hearing these words and that I may call heaven and earth to witness against them; Compare
31:29For I know that after my death you will utterly spoil yourselves and turn away from the way that I have commanded you; and evil will come upon you in the last days, for you will do what is evil in the sight of Jehovah so as to provoke Him to anger by your undertakings. Compare
31:30And Moses spoke in the hearing of all the congregation of Israel the words of this song until they were completed. Compare
