| 2[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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. |
| 3[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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. |
| 4[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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. |
| 5[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 5Then build an altar there to the LORD your God, an altar of stones that hasn't been worked with iron tools. |
| 6[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 6Build the altar to the LORD your God with uncut stones, then offer a burnt offering to him. |
| 7[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 7Offer a burnt offering there, then eat and rejoice in the presence of the LORD your God. |
| 8[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 8Inscribe on the stones plainly and distinctly all the words of this Law." |
| 9[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 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. |
| 10[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 10Listen to his voice and carry out his commands and statutes that I'm giving you today." |

| 14[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 14The descendants of Levi are to declare in a loud voice to every Israeli: |
| 15[an error occurred while processing this directive] | 15"'Cursed is the one who makes a sculptured or cast image—a detestable thing to the Lord, the work of a craftsman—and sets it up secretly.' "Then all the people are to respond by saying, 'Amen!' |
