Deu27:1 Now Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying, 'Keep all the commandment which I command you this day.
Deu27:2 And on the day you pass over the Jordan to the land which the LORD your God gives you, you shall set up large stones, and plaster them with plaster;
Deu27:3 and you shall write upon them all the words of this law, when you pass over to enter the land which the LORD your God gives you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as the LORD, the God of your fathers, has promised you.
Deu27:4 And when you have passed over the Jordan, you shall set up these stones, concerning which I command you this day, on Mount Ebal, and you shall plaster them with plaster.
Deu27:5 And there you shall build an altar to the LORD your God, an altar of stones;you shall lift up no iron tool upon them.
Deu27:6 You shall build an altar to the LORD your God of unhewn stones;and you shall offer burnt offerings on it to the LORD your God;
Deu27:7 and you shall sacrifice peace offerings, and shall eat there;and you shall rejoice before the LORD your God.
Deu27:8 And you shall write upon the stones all the words of this law very plainly.'
Deu27:9 And Moses and the Levitical priests said to all Israel, 'Keep silence and hear, O Israel: this day you have become the people of the LORD your God.
Deu27:10 You shall therefore obey the voice of the LORD your God, keeping his commandments and his statutes, which I command you this day.'
Deu27:11 And Moses charged the people the same day, saying,
Deu27:12 'When you have passed over the Jordan, these shall stand upon Mount Ger'izim to bless the people: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Is'sachar, Joseph, and Benjamin.
Deu27:13 And these shall stand upon Mount Ebal for the curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zeb'ulun, Dan, and Naph'tali.
Deu27:14 And the Levites shall declare to all the men of Israel with a loud voice:
Deu27:15 'Cursed be the man who makes a graven or molten image, an abomination to the LORD, a thing made by the hands of a craftsman, and sets it up in secret.' And all the people shall answer and say, Amen.'
Deu27:16 'Cursed be he who dishonors his father or his mother.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:17 'Cursed be he who removes his neighbor's landmark.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:18 'Cursed be he who misleads a blind man on the road.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:19 'Cursed be he who perverts the justice due to the sojourner, the fatherless, and the widow.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:20 'Cursed be he who lies with his father's wife, because he has uncovered her who is his father's.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:21 'Cursed be he who lies with any kind of beast.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:22 'Cursed be he who lies with his sister, whether the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:23 'Cursed be he who lies with his mother-in-law.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:24 'Cursed be he who slays his neighbor in secret.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:25 'Cursed be he who takes a bribe to slay an innocent person.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
Deu27:26 'Cursed be he who does not confirm the words of this law by doing them.' And all the people shall say, Amen.'
