And he commanded Moses and [the] elders of Israel the people saying keep all the commandment which I [am] commanding you this day.

2 And on the day when you go over Jordan into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, put up great stones, coating them with building-paste,

And it will be on the day when you will pass over the Jordan to the land which Yahweh God your [is] about to give to you and you will set up for yourself stones large and you will whitewash them with lime.

3 And writing on them all the words of this law, after you have gone over; so that you may take the heritage which the Lord your God is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as the Lord, the God of your fathers, has said.

And you will write on them all [the] words of the law this when passing over you so that this you may go into the land which Yahweh God your - [is] about to give to you a land flowing of milk and honey just as he spoke Yahweh [the] God of ancestors your to you.
