Now therefore write ye this song for you, and teach it the children of Israel: put it in their mouths, that this song may be a witness for me against the children of Israel.

Verse 19 is found in chapter 31 of Deuteronomy. God announces to Moses that Israel will turn away after entering the land and commands him to write a song that will serve as a witness against the people. Joshua is again confirmed as successor. The section introduces an important tension: even after all the warnings, God anticipates future unfaithfulness while continuing to prepare Joshua to lead the people according to his purpose.

Ahora escriban para ustedes este cántico y enséñaselo a los hijos de Israel; ponlo en su boca, para que este cántico me sea testigo contra los hijos de Israel.
Maintenant, écrivez ce cantique. Enseigne-le aux enfants d'Israël, mets-le dans leur bouche, et que ce cantique me serve de témoin contre les enfants d'Israël.
