1Then Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people: "Pay attention to all the commandments I am giving you today.1Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people, "Keep every command I am giving you today.
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.2When you cross the Jordan into the land the LORD your God is giving you, set up large stones and cover them with plaster.
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.3Write all the words of this law on the stones after you cross to enter the land the LORD your God is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as the LORD, the God of your fathers, has promised you.
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.4When you have crossed the Jordan, you are to set up these stones on Mount Ebal, as I am commanding you today, and you are to cover them with plaster.
5Then you must build an altar there to the LORD your God, an altar of stones--do not use an iron tool on them.5Build an altar of stones there to the LORD your God--do not use any iron tool on them.
6You must build the altar of the LORD your God with whole stones and offer burnt offerings on it to the LORD your God.6Use uncut stones to build the altar of the LORD your God and offer burnt offerings to the LORD your God on it.
7Also you must offer fellowship offerings and eat them there, rejoicing before the LORD your God.7There you are to sacrifice fellowship offerings, eat, and rejoice in the presence of the LORD your God.
8You must inscribe on the stones all the words of this law, making them clear." 8Write clearly all the words of this law on the plastered stones."
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.9Moses and the Levitical priests spoke to all Israel, "Be silent, Israel, and listen! This day you have become the people of the LORD your God.
10You must obey him and keep his commandments and statutes that I am giving you today."10Obey the LORD your God and follow his commands and statutes I am giving you today."
11Moreover, Moses commanded the people that day:11On that day Moses commanded the people,
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.12"When you have crossed the Jordan, these tribes will stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin.
13And these other tribes must stand for the curse on Mount Ebal: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali. 13And these tribes will stand on Mount Ebal to deliver the curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
