¹⁹ “Now therefore write ^(A)this song and ^(B)teach it to the people of Israel. Put it in their mouths, that this song may be ^(C)a witness for me against the people of Israel. ²⁰ For when I have brought them into the land ^(D)flowing with milk and honey, which I swore to give to their fathers, and they have eaten and are full and ^(E)grown fat, ^(F)they will turn to other gods and serve them, and ^(G)despise me and ^(H)break my covenant. ²¹ And when many evils and troubles have come upon them, this song shall confront them as ^(I)a witness (for it will live unforgotten in the mouths of their offspring). For ^(J)I know what they are inclined to do even today, before I have brought them into the land that I swore to give.” ²² So Moses wrote this song the same day and taught it to the people of Israel.
