Moses's final days

In Deuteronomy, chapter 31, Moses tells the Israelites that Joshua will be his successor.  Moses then reassured the people that God was with them and that they will have victories over anyone who tries to challenge them.

God then tells Moses that he will die soon and will never set foot in the land the Israelites were traveling to.  He then warns Moses and Joshua that once Moses is dead the people wil rebel.  They'll worship other false gods.   They will break all of the commandments God has set forth.

Moses then puts together a song that he and Joshua will sing to the Israelites, and in chapter 32 Moses sings the lengthy song.  The song is put together so no one would not remember hearing it.
