Deuteronomy 31:19-21

Living Bible

¹⁹ “Now write down the words of this song, and teach it to the people of Israel as my warning to them. ²⁰ When I have brought them into the land I promised their ancestors—a land ‘flowing with milk and honey’—and when they have become fat and prosperous, and worship other gods and despise me and break my contract, ²¹ and great disasters come upon them, then this song will remind them of the reason for their woes. (For this song will live from generation to generation.) I know now, even before they enter the land, what these people are like.”
