Thus Moses spake in the audience of all the congregation of Israel the wordes of this song, vntill he had ended them.
Deuteronomy 31:28 Gather vnto me all the Elders of your tribes, and your officers, that I may speake these wordes in their audience, and call heauen and earth to recorde against them.
Deuteronomy 31:29 For I am sure that after my death ye will vtterly be corrupt and turne from the way, which I haue commanded you: therefore euill will come vpon you at the length, because ye will comit euill in the sight of the Lord, by prouoking him to anger through the worke of your hands.
Deuteronomy 31:30 Thus Moses spake in the audience of all the congregation of Israel the wordes of this song, vntill he had ended them.
The verse centers on "thus", "moses", "spake", "audience", "congregation", "israel", "wordes", and "song". It is saying that the verse draws attention to "thus" and "moses", so its meaning should be read from those terms before moving to application.
The prior verse says "For I am sure that after my...", giving immediate footing for "thus" and "moses". In Deuteronomy context, the local focus is covenant, worship, and faithfulness.
A plain takeaway is to answer the verse's own emphasis on "thus" and "moses" with trust shaped by these words, not by a vague optimism outside the passage.
