(Joshua 8:30–35)
1
And Moses and [the] elderly of Israel command the people, saying, “Keep all the command which I am commanding you today;
2
and it has been, in the day that you pass over the Jordan to the land which your God YHWH is giving to you, that you have raised up great stones for yourself, and plastered them with plaster,
3
and written on them all the words of this law in your passing over, so that you go into the land which your God YHWH is giving to youa land flowing with milk and honey, as YHWH, God of your fathers, has spoken to you.
4
And it has been, in your passing over the Jordan, you raise up these stones which I am commanding you today, in Mount Ebal, and you have plastered them with plaster,
5
and built an altar there to your God YHWH, an altar of stones; you do not wave iron over them.
6
You build the altar of your God YHWH [with] complete stones, and have caused burnt-offerings to ascend on it to your God YHWH,
7
and sacrificed peace-offerings, and eaten there, and rejoiced before your God YHWH,
8
and written on the stones all the words of this law, well engraved.”
9
And Moses speaksthe priests, the Levites, alsoto all Israel, saying, “Keep silent and hear, O Israel: This day you have become a people for your God YHWH;
10
and you have listened to the voice of your God YHWH, and done His commands and His statutes which I am commanding you today.”
