4. Therefore, when you have crossed over the Jordan, erect the stones, just as I instruct you to do this day, on Mount Ebal. And you shall coat them with plaster,
5. and you shall build, in that place, an altar to the Lord your God out of stones which have not been touched by iron,
6. out of stones which have not been hewn or polished. And you shall offer holocausts on it to the Lord your God.
7. And you shall immolate peace victims. And you shall eat and feast in that place, in the sight of the Lord your God.
8. And you shall write upon the stones all the words of this law, plainly and clearly."
9. And Moses and the priests of Levitical stock said to all of Israel: "Attend and listen, O Israel! Today you have become the people of the Lord your God.
10. You shall listen to his voice, and you shall do the commandments and justices, which I am entrusting to you."
11. And Moses instructed the people in that day, saying:
12. "These shall stand upon Mount Gerizim, as a blessing to the people, when you will have crossed the Jordan: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin.
13. And in the opposite region, there shall stand upon Mount Ebal, as a curse: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
