Deuteronomy 31:19-30
New King James Version
19 “Now therefore, write down this song for yourselves, and teach it to the children of Israel; put it in their mouths, that this song may be (A)a witness for Me against the children of Israel. 20 When I have brought them to the land flowing with milk and honey, of which I swore to their fathers, and they have eaten and filled themselves (B)and grown fat, (C)then they will turn to other gods and serve them; and they will provoke Me and break My covenant. 21 Then it shall be, (D)when many evils and troubles have come upon them, that this song will testify against them as a witness; for it will not be forgotten in the mouths of their descendants, for (E)I know the inclination (F)of their behavior today, even before I have brought them to the land of which I swore to give them.”
22 Therefore Moses wrote this song the same day, and taught it to the children of Israel. 23 (G)Then He inaugurated Joshua the son of Nun, and said, (H)“Be strong and of good courage; for you shall bring the children of Israel into the land of which I swore to them, and I will be with you.”
24 So it was, when Moses had completed writing the words of this law in a book, when they were finished, 25 that Moses commanded the Levites, who bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord, saying: 26 “Take this Book of the Law, (I)and put it beside the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, that it may be there (J)as a witness against you; 27 (K)for I know your rebellion and your (L)stiff neck. If today, while I am yet alive with you, you have been rebellious against the Lord, then how much more after my death? 28 Gather to me all the elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speak these words in their hearing (M)and call heaven and earth to witness against them. 29 For I know that after my death you will (N)become utterly corrupt, and turn aside from the way which I have commanded you. And (O)evil will befall you (P)in the latter days, because you will do evil in the sight of the Lord, to provoke Him to anger through the work of your hands.”
The Song of Moses
30 Then Moses spoke in the hearing of all the assembly of Israel the words of this song until they were ended:

24 and when He had given thanks, He broke it and said, [a]“Take, eat; this is My body which is [b]broken for you; do this in remembrance of Me.” 25 In the same manner He also took the cup after supper, saying, “This cup is the new covenant in My blood. This do, as often as you drink it, in remembrance of Me.”
26 For as often as you eat this bread and drink this cup, you proclaim the Lord’s death (A)till He comes.

New King James Version
4 (A)We will not hide them from their children,
(B)Telling to the generation to come the praises of the Lord,
And His strength and His wonderful works that He has done.
5 For (C)He established a testimony in Jacob,
And appointed a law in Israel,
Which He commanded our fathers,
That (D)they should make them known to their children;
6 (E)That the generation to come might know them,
The children who would be born,
That they may arise and declare them to their children,
7 That they may set their hope in God,
And not forget the works of God,
But keep His commandments;
8 And (F)may not be like their fathers,
(G)A stubborn and rebellious generation,
A generation (H)that did not [a]set its heart aright,
And whose spirit was not faithful to God.
