27 ¹ Now Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying, "Keep all the commandment which I command you this day. 27 ² And on the day you pass over the Jordan to the land which Yahweh your God gives you, you shall set up large stones, and plaster them with plaster; 27 ³ and you shall write upon them all the words of this law, when you pass over to enter the land which Yahweh your God gives you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as Yahweh, the God of your fathers, has promised you. 27 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. 27 ⁵ And there you shall build an altar to Yahweh your God, an altar of stones; you shall lift up no iron tool upon them. 27 ⁶ You shall build an altar to Yahweh your God of unhewn stones; and you shall offer burnt offerings on it to Yahweh your God; 27 ⁷ and you shall sacrifice peace offerings, and shall eat there; and you shall rejoice before Yahweh your God. 27 ⁸ And you shall write upon the stones all the words of this law very plainly."

27 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 Yahweh your God. 27 ¹⁰ You shall therefore obey the voice of Yahweh your God, keeping his commandments and his statutes, which I command you this day."
