25 he instructed the Levites, who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, saying:
26 'Take this book, and place it inside the ark of the covenant of the Lord your God, so that it may be there as a testimony against you.
27 For I know your contentiousness and your very stiff neck. Even while I am still living and entering with you, you have always acted with contention against the Lord. How much more so when I will be dead?
