Chapter 27, And Moses with the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying,
Keep all the commandments which I command you this day.
And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass over Jordan unto the land which the
Lord thy God giveth thee, that thou shalt set thee up great stones, and plaster them
with plaster.
And thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law, when thou art passed
over, that thou mayest go in unto the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee,
a land that floweth with milk and honey, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath
promised thee.
Therefore it shall be, when ye be gone over Jordan, that ye shall set up these
stones which I command you this day in Mount Ebu.
And thou shalt plaster them with plaster.
And there shalt thou build an altar unto the Lord thy God, an altar of stones.
Thou shalt not lift up any iron tool upon them.
Thou shalt build the altar of the Lord thy God of whole stones.
And thou shalt offer burnt offerings thereon unto the Lord thy God.
And thou shalt offer peace offerings, and shalt eat there, and rejoice before
the Lord thy God.
And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law very plainly.
And Moses and the priests, the Levites, spake unto all Israel, saying,
Take heed, and hearken, O Israel, this day thou art become the people of the
Lord thy God.
Thou shalt therefore obey the voice of the Lord thy God, and do his commandments and
his statutes which I command thee this day.
And Moses charged the people the same day, saying, These shall stand upon Mount
Gerizim to bless the people when ye are come over Jordan, Simeon, and Levi,
and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin.
And these shall stand upon Mount Ebal to curse Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun,
Dan, and Naphtali.
And the Levites shall speak and say unto all the men of Israel with a loud voice,
Cursed be the man that maketh any graven or molten image, an abomination unto the
Lord, the work of the hands of the craftsmen, and putteth it in a secret
place.
And all the people shall answer and say, Amen.
Cursed be he that setteth light by his father or his mother, and all the people
shall say, Amen.
Cursed be he that removeth his neighbor's landmark, and all the people shall say,
Amen.
Cursed be he that maketh the blind to wander out of the way, and all the people
shall say, Amen.
Cursed be he that perverteth the judgment of the stranger, fatherless and widow,
and all the people shall say, Amen.
Cursed be he that lieth with his father's wife, because he uncovereth his father's
skirt, and all the people shall say, Amen.
Cursed be he that lieth with any manner of beast, and all the people shall say,
Amen.
Cursed be he that lieth with his sister, the daughter of his father
And all the people shall say, Amen.
