They were to rise and tell their childrenso that they might put their confidence in God and not forget God’s works, but keep His commands.Then they would not be like their fathers, a stubborn and rebellious generation, a generation whose heart was not loyal and whose spirit was not faithful to God.

Deuteronomy 31:19-30
Therefore write down this song for yourselves and teach it to the Israelites; have them recite it, so that this song may be a witness for Me against the Israelites.When I bring them into the land I swore to give their fathers, a land flowing with milk and honey, they will eat their fill and prosper. They will turn to other gods and worship them, despising Me and breaking My covenant.And when many troubles and afflictions come to them, this song will testify against them, because their descendants will not have forgotten it. For I know what they are prone to do, even before I bring them into the land I swore to give them.”So Moses wrote down this song on that day and taught it to the Israelites.The Lord commissioned Joshua son of Nun,“ Be strong and courageous, for you will bring the Israelites into the land I swore to them, and I will be with you.”When Moses had finished writing down on a scroll every single word of this law,he commanded the Levites who carried the ark of the Lord’s covenant,“ Take this book of the law and place it beside the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God so that it may remain there as a witness against you.For I know how rebellious and stiff-necked you are. If you are rebelling against the Lord now, while I am still alive, how much more will you rebel after I am dead!Assemble all your tribal elders and officers before me so that I may speak these words directly to them and call heaven and earth as witnesses against them.For I know that after my death you will become completely corrupt and turn from the path I have commanded you. Disaster will come to you in the future, because you will do what is evil in the Lord’s sight, infuriating Him with what your hands have made.”Then Moses recited aloud every single word of this song to the entire assembly of Israel:

Joshua 4:21-24
and he said to the Israelites,“ In the future, when your children ask their fathers,‘ What is the meaning of these stones?’you should tell your children,‘ Israel crossed the Jordan on dry ground.’For the Lord your God dried up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had crossed over, just as the Lord your God did to the Red Sea, which He dried up before us until we had crossed over.This is so that all the people of the earth may know that the Lord’s hand is mighty, and so that you may always fear the Lord your God.”

You will cast all our sins into the depths of the sea.
