12 “These shall stand to bless the people on Mount Gerizim when you? have passed over the Jordan: Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin.

13 And these shall stand to curse on Mount Ebal: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.

14 And the Levites shall speak and say to every man of Israel in a loud voice:

15 ‘Cursed is the man who makes a carved or molten image, an abomination to YHWH, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and sets it up in secret.’ And all the people shall answer and say, ‘Amen.’

16 ‘Cursed is he who dishonors his father or his mother.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

17 ‘Cursed is he who moves a border of his neighbor.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

18 ‘Cursed is he who causes a blind man to err in the road.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

19 ‘Cursed is he who withholds justice from the fatherless, the foreigner, or the widow.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

20 ‘Cursed is he who lies with the wife of his father, because he has uncovered the skirt of his father.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

21 ‘Cursed is he who lies with any kind of animal.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

22 ‘Cursed is he who lies with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

23 ‘Cursed is he who lies with his mother-in-law.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

24 ‘Cursed is he who strikes down his neighbor in secret.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

25 ‘Cursed is he who takes a bribe to slay a soul of innocent blood.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’

26 ‘Cursed is he who does not confirm the words of this law by doing it.’ And all the people shall say, ‘Amen.’
