1Moses and the elders of Israel gave these orders to the people: "Observe all of the commandments that I'm giving you today. 1Then Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people: "Pay attention to all the commandments I am giving you today.
2On the day you cross over the Jordan River to the land that the LORD your God is about to give you, set up large stones and coat them with plaster. 2When you cross the Jordan River to the land the LORD your God is giving you, you must erect great stones and cover them with plaster.
3Then inscribe on them all the words of this law when you've crossed over into the land that the LORD your God is about to give you—a land flowing with milk and honey—just as the LORD God of your ancestors promised you.3Then you must inscribe on them all the words of this law when you cross over, so that you may enter the land the LORD your God is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey just as the LORD, the God of your ancestors, said to you.
4"When you have crossed the Jordan River, set up these stones about which I'm commanding you today on Mount Ebal, and coat them with plaster. 4So when you cross the Jordan you must erect on Mount Ebal these stones about which I am commanding you today, and you must cover them with plaster.
5Then build an altar there to the LORD your God, an altar of stones that hasn't been worked with iron tools. 5Then you must build an altar there to the LORD your God, an altar of stones--do not use an iron tool on them.
6Build the altar to the LORD your God with uncut stones, then offer a burnt offering to him.6You must build the altar of the LORD your God with whole stones and offer burnt offerings on it to the LORD your God.
7Offer a burnt offering there, then eat and rejoice in the presence of the LORD your God. 7Also you must offer fellowship offerings and eat them there, rejoicing before the LORD your God.
8Inscribe on the stones plainly and distinctly all the words of this Law."8You must inscribe on the stones all the words of this law, making them clear."
9Then Moses and the Levitical priests spoke to Israel. They said, "Be quiet and listen, Israel! Today you have become the people of the LORD your God. 9Then Moses and the Levitical priests spoke to all Israel: "Be quiet and pay attention, Israel. Today you have become the people of the LORD your God.
10Listen to his voice and carry out his commands and statutes that I'm giving you today."10You must obey him and keep his commandments and statutes that I am giving you today."
11Moses gave the people these commands that day: 11Moreover, Moses commanded the people that day:
12"When you cross the Jordan River, these tribes are to stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people—Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin. 12"The following tribes must stand to bless the people on Mount Gerizim when you cross the Jordan: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin.
13The tribes of Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali are to stand on Mount Ebal to pronounce the curse. 13And these other tribes must stand for the curse on Mount Ebal: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
14The descendants of Levi are to declare in a loud voice to every Israeli:14"The Levites will call out to every Israelite with a loud voice:
