And Moses made an end of speaking all these words to all Israel. ] Finished all he had to say to them from the Lord, whether by way of precept, moral, civil, and ceremonial or in the form of a song.
43
"Rejoice with him, O heavens; bow down to him, all gods, for he avenges the blood of his children and takes vengeance on his adversaries. He repays those who hate him and cleanses his people's land."
44
Moses came and recited all the words of this song in the hearing of the people, he and Joshua the son of Nun.
45
And when Moses had finished speaking all these words to all Israel,
46
he said to them, "Take to heart all the words by which I am warning you today, that you may command them to your children, that they may be careful to do all the words of this law.
47
For it is no empty word for you, but your very life, and by this word you shall live long in the land that you are going over the Jordan to possess."
