42 My arrows will get drunkon enemy blood;my sword will taste the fleshand the blood of the enemy.It will kill prisoners,and cut off the headsof their leaders.”
43 Tell the heavens to celebrateand all gods to bow downto the Lord,because he will take revengeon those hateful enemieswho killed his people.He will forgive the sins of Israeland purify their land.
44-45 Moses spoke the words of the song so that all the Israelites could hear, and Joshua helped him. When Moses had finished,
46 he said, “Always remember this song I have taught you today. And let it be a warning that you must teach your children to obey everything written in The Book of God's Law.
47 The Law isn't empty words. It can give you a long life in the land that you are going to take.”
48 Later that day the Lord said to Moses:
49 Go up into the Abarim Mountain range here in Moab across the Jordan valley from Jericho. And when you reach the top of Mount Nebo, you will be able to see the land of Canaan, which I am giving to Israel.
