1Then Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people, “Keep all the commandments I am giving you today. 1וַיְצַ֤ו מֹשֶׁה֙ וְזִקְנֵ֣י יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל אֶת־ הָעָ֖ם לֵאמֹ֑ר שָׁמֹר֙ אֶת־ כָּל־ הַמִּצְוָ֔ה אֲשֶׁ֧ר אָנֹכִ֛י מְצַוֶּ֥ה אֶתְכֶ֖ם הַיּֽוֹם׃
2And on the day you cross the Jordan into the land the LORD your God is giving you, you are to set up large stones and coat them with plaster. 2וְהָיָ֗ה בַּיּוֹם֮ אֲשֶׁ֣ר תַּעַבְר֣וּ אֶת־ הַיַּרְדֵּן֒ אֶל־ הָאָ֕רֶץ אֲשֶׁר־ יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶ֖יךָ נֹתֵ֣ן לָ֑ךְ וַהֲקֵמֹתָ֤ לְךָ֙ אֲבָנִ֣ים גְּדֹל֔וֹת וְשַׂדְתָּ֥ אֹתָ֖ם בַּשִּֽׂיד׃
3Write on them all the words of this law when you have crossed over to 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 fathers, has promised you. 3וְכָתַבְתָּ֣ עֲלֵיהֶ֗ן אֶֽת־ כָּל־ דִּבְרֵ֛י הַתּוֹרָ֥ה הַזֹּ֖את בְּעָבְרֶ֑ךָ לְמַ֡עַן אֲשֶׁר֩ תָּבֹ֨א אֶל־ הָאָ֜רֶץ אֲ‍ֽשֶׁר־ יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶ֣יךָ ׀ נֹתֵ֣ן לְךָ֗ אֶ֣רֶץ זָבַ֤ת חָלָב֙ וּדְבַ֔שׁ כַּאֲשֶׁ֥ר דִּבֶּ֛ר יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵֽי־ אֲבֹתֶ֖יךָ לָֽךְ׃
4And when 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 coat them with plaster. 4וְהָיָה֮ בְּעָבְרְכֶ֣ם אֶת־ הַיַּרְדֵּן֒ תָּקִ֜ימוּ אֶת־ הָאֲבָנִ֣ים הָאֵ֗לֶּה אֲשֶׁ֨ר אָנֹכִ֜י מְצַוֶּ֥ה אֶתְכֶ֛ם הַיּ֖וֹם בְּהַ֣ר עֵיבָ֑ל וְשַׂדְתָּ֥ אוֹתָ֖ם בַּשִּֽׂיד׃
5Moreover, you shall build there an altar to the LORD your God, an altar of stones. You must not use any iron tool on them. 5וּבָנִ֤יתָ שָּׁם֙ מִזְבֵּ֔חַ לַיהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ מִזְבַּ֣ח אֲבָנִ֔ים לֹא־ תָנִ֥יף עֲלֵיהֶ֖ם בַּרְזֶֽל׃
6You shall build the altar of the LORD your God with uncut stones and offer upon it burnt offerings to the LORD your God. 6אֲבָנִ֤ים שְׁלֵמוֹת֙ תִּבְנֶ֔ה אֶת־ מִזְבַּ֖ח יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ וְהַעֲלִ֤יתָ עָלָיו֙ עוֹלֹ֔ת לַיהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ׃
7There you are to sacrifice [your] peace offerings, eating them and rejoicing in the presence of the LORD your God. 7וְזָבַחְתָּ֥ שְׁלָמִ֖ים וְאָכַ֣לְתָּ שָּׁ֑ם וְשָׂ֣מַחְתָּ֔ לִפְנֵ֖י יְהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ׃
8And you shall write distinctly upon these stones all the words of this law.” 8וְכָתַבְתָּ֣ עַל־ הָאֲבָנִ֗ים אֶֽת־ כָּל־ דִּבְרֵ֛י הַתּוֹרָ֥ה הַזֹּ֖את בַּאֵ֥ר הֵיטֵֽב׃ ס
9Then Moses and the Levitical priests spoke to all Israel: “Be silent, O Israel, and listen! This day you have become the people of the LORD your God. 9וַיְדַבֵּ֤ר מֹשֶׁה֙ וְהַכֹּהֲנִ֣ים הַלְוִיִּ֔ם אֶ֥ל כָּל־ יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל לֵאמֹ֑ר הַסְכֵּ֤ת ׀ וּשְׁמַע֙ יִשְׂרָאֵ֔ל הַיּ֤וֹם הַזֶּה֙ נִהְיֵ֣יתָֽ לְעָ֔ם לַיהוָ֖ה אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ׃
10You shall therefore obey the voice of the LORD your God and follow His commandments and statutes I am giving you today.” 10וְשָׁ֣מַעְתָּ֔ בְּק֖וֹל יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹהֶ֑יךָ וְעָשִׂ֤יתָ אֶת־ מִצְוֺתָו֙‪‬‪‬ וְאֶת־ חֻקָּ֔יו אֲשֶׁ֛ר אָנֹכִ֥י מְצַוְּךָ֖ הַיּֽוֹם׃ ס
11On that day Moses commanded the people: 11וַיְצַ֤ו מֹשֶׁה֙ אֶת־ הָעָ֔ם בַּיּ֥וֹם הַה֖וּא לֵאמֹֽר׃
12“When you have crossed the Jordan, these [tribes] shall stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin. 12אֵ֠לֶּה יַֽעַמְד֞וּ לְבָרֵ֤ךְ אֶת־ הָעָם֙ עַל־ הַ֣ר גְּרִזִ֔ים בְּעָבְרְכֶ֖ם אֶת־ הַיַּרְדֵּ֑ן שִׁמְעוֹן֙ וְלֵוִ֣י וִֽיהוּדָ֔ה וְיִשָּׂשכָ֖ר וְיוֹסֵ֥ף וּבִנְיָמִֽן׃
13And these [tribes] shall stand on Mount Ebal to deliver the curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali. 13וְאֵ֛לֶּה יַֽעַמְד֥וּ עַל־ הַקְּלָלָ֖ה בְּהַ֣ר עֵיבָ֑ל רְאוּבֵן֙ גָּ֣ד וְאָשֵׁ֔ר וּזְבוּלֻ֖ן דָּ֥ן וְנַפְתָּלִֽי׃
14Then the Levites shall proclaim in a loud voice to every Israelite: 14וְעָנ֣וּ הַלְוִיִּ֗ם וְאָֽמְר֛וּ אֶל־ כָּל־ אִ֥ישׁ יִשְׂרָאֵ֖ל ק֥וֹל רָֽם׃ ס
