Deuteronomy 31:21-23

Revised Geneva Translation

²¹ “And then, when many adversities and tribulations shall come upon them, this song shall answer them to their faces as a witness. For it shall not be forgotten out of the mouths of their descendants. For I know the intent of their imagination even now, before I have brought them into the land which I swore.”

²² Moses, therefore, wrote this song the same day, and taught it to the children of Israel,

²³ and gave Joshua, the son of Nun, a charge, and said, “Be strong and of a good courage. For you shall bring the children of Israel into the land which I swore to them. And I will be with you.”
