[2] And on the day you cross the Jordan into the land that the LORD your God is giving you, set up large stones and coat them with plaster. [3] Write on them all the words of this law when you have crossed over to enter the land that 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. [4] And 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. [5] Moreover, you are to build there an altar to the LORD your God, an altar of stones. You must not use any iron tool on them. [6] You shall build the altar of the LORD your God with uncut stones and offer upon it burnt offerings to the LORD your God. [7] There you are to sacrifice your peace offerings, eating them and rejoicing in the presence of the LORD your God. [8] And you shall write distinctly upon these stones all the words of this law.” [9] Then 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. [10] You shall therefore obey the voice of the LORD your God and follow His commandments and statutes I am giving you today.” [11] On that day Moses commanded the people: [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. [13] And these tribes shall stand on Mount Ebal to deliver the curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali. [14] Then the Levites shall proclaim in a loud voice to every Israelite: [15] ‘Cursed is the man who makes a carved idol or molten image—an abomination to the LORD, the work of the hands of a craftsman—and sets it up in secret.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [16] ‘Cursed is he who dishonors his father or mother.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [17] ‘Cursed is he who moves his neighbor’s boundary stone.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [18] ‘Cursed is he who lets a blind man wander in the road.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [19] ‘Cursed is he who withholds justice from the foreigner, the fatherless, or the widow.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [20] ‘Cursed is he who sleeps with his father’s wife, for he has violated his father’s marriage bed.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [21] ‘Cursed is he who lies with any animal.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [22] ‘Cursed is he who sleeps with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [23] ‘Cursed is he who sleeps with his mother-in-law.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [24] ‘Cursed is he who strikes down his neighbor in secret.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [25] ‘Cursed is he who accepts a bribe to kill an innocent person.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ [26] ‘Cursed is he who does not put the words of this law into practice.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’ ## Places in this chapter - **Mount Gerizim** — https://scriptoria.digital/en/atlas/mount-gerizim - **Jordan** — https://scriptoria.digital/en/atlas/jordan - **Mount Ebal** — https://scriptoria.digital/en/atlas/mount-ebal ## Each verse - Deuteronomy 27:1 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/1 - Deuteronomy 27:2 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/2 - Deuteronomy 27:3 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/3 - Deuteronomy 27:4 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/4 - Deuteronomy 27:5 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/5 - Deuteronomy 27:6 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/6 - Deuteronomy 27:7 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/7 - Deuteronomy 27:8 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/8 - Deuteronomy 27:9 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/9 - Deuteronomy 27:10 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/10 - Deuteronomy 27:11 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/11 - Deuteronomy 27:12 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/12 - Deuteronomy 27:13 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/13 - Deuteronomy 27:14 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/14 - Deuteronomy 27:15 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/15 - Deuteronomy 27:16 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/16 - Deuteronomy 27:17 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/17 - Deuteronomy 27:18 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/18 - Deuteronomy 27:19 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/19 - Deuteronomy 27:20 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/20 - Deuteronomy 27:21 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/21 - Deuteronomy 27:22 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/22 - Deuteronomy 27:23 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/23 - Deuteronomy 27:24 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/24 - Deuteronomy 27:25 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/25 - Deuteronomy 27:26 — https://scriptoria.digital/en/bible/deuteronomy/27/26
