Deuteronomy 31 — Context

So that same day Moses made this song, teaching it to the children of Israel.

Then he gave orders to Joshua, the son of Nun, saying to him, Be strong and take heart: for you are to go at the head of the children of Israel into the land which I made an oath to give them; and I will be with you.

Now after writing all the words of this law in a book till the record of them was complete,

Moses said to the Levites who were responsible for taking up the ark of the Lord's agreement,

Take this book of the law and put it by the ark of the Lord's agreement, so that it may be a witness against you.

For I have knowledge of your hard and uncontrolled hearts: even now, while I am still living, you will not be ruled by the Lord; how much less after my death?

Get together before me all those who are in authority in your tribes, and your overseers, so that I may say these things in their hearing, and make heaven and earth my witnesses against them.
