< Deuteronomy 27 >
1 Then Moses and the responsible men of Israel gave the people these orders: Keep all the orders which I have given you this day;
E deram ordem, Moisés e os anciãos, ao povo de Israel, dizendo: guardai todos estes mandamentos que hoje vos ordeno:
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,
Será pois que, no dia em que passares o Jordão à terra que te der o Senhor teu Deus, levantar-te-ás umas pedras grandes, e as caiarás com cal.
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.
E, havendo-o passado, escreverás nelas todas as palavras desta lei, para entrares na terra que te der o Senhor teu Deus, terra que mana leite e mel, como te disse o Senhor Deus de teus pais.
4 And when you have gone over Jordan, you are to put up these stones, as I have said to you today, in Mount Ebal, and have them coated with building-paste.
Será pois que, quando houveres passado o Jordão, levantareis estas pedras, que hoje vos ordeno, no monte Ebal, e as caiarás com cal.
5 There you are to make an altar to the Lord your God, of stones on which no iron instrument has been used.
E ali edificarás um altar ao Senhor teu Deus, um altar de pedras; não alçarás ferro sobre elas.
6 You are to make the altar of the Lord your God of uncut stones; offering on it burned offerings to the Lord your God:
De pedras inteiras edificarás o altar do Senhor teu Deus: e sobre ele oferecerás holocaustos ao Senhor teu Deus.
7 And you are to make your peace-offerings, feasting there with joy before the Lord your God.
Também sacrificarás ofertas pacíficas, e ali comerás perante o Senhor teu Deus, e te alegrarás.
8 And put on the stones all the words of this law, writing them very clearly.
E nestas pedras escreverás todas as palavras desta lei, exprimindo-as bem.
9 Then Moses and the priests, the Levites, said to all Israel, Be quiet and give ear, O Israel; today you have become the people of the Lord your God.
Falou mais Moisés, juntamente com os sacerdotes levitas, a todo o Israel, dizendo: Escuta e ouve, ó Israel! neste dia vieste a ser por povo ao Senhor teu Deus.
10 For this cause you are to give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, and do his orders and his laws which I give you this day.
Portanto obedecerás à voz do Senhor teu Deus, e farás os seus mandamentos e os seus estatutos que hoje te ordeno.
11 That same day Moses said to the people,
E Moisés deu ordem naquele dia ao povo, dizendo:
12 These are to take their places on Mount Gerizim for blessing the people when you have gone over Jordan: Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Joseph and Benjamin;
Quando houverdes passado o Jordão, estes estarão sobre o monte Gerizim, para abençoarem o povo: Simeão, e Levi, e Judá, e Issacar, e José, e Benjamin;
13 And these are to be on Mount Ebal for the curse: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
E estes estarão para amaldiçoar sobre o monte Ebal: Ruben, Gad, e Aser, e Zebulon, Dan e Naphtali.
14 Then the Levites are to say in a loud voice to all the men of Israel,
E os levitas protestarão a todo o povo de Israel em alta voz, e dirão:
15 Cursed is the man who makes any image of wood or stone or metal, disgusting to the Lord, the work of man's hands, and puts it up in secret. And let all the people say, So be it.
Maldito o homem que fizer imagem de escultura, ou de fundição, abominação ao Senhor, obra da mão do artífice, e a puser em um lugar escondido. E todo o povo responderá, e dirá: amém.
16 Cursed is he who does not give honour to his father or mother. And let all the people say, So be it.

Maldito aquele que perverter o direito do estrangeiro, do órfão e da viúva. E todo o povo dirá: amém.
20 Cursed is he who has sex relations with his father's wife, for he has put shame on his father. And let all the people say, So be it.
Maldito aquele que se deitar com a mulher de seu pai, porquanto descobriu a ourela de seu pai. E todo o povo dirá: amém.

Maldito aquele que tomar peita para ferir a alguma pessoa, o sangue do inocente. E todo o povo dirá: amém.
26 Cursed is he who does not take this law to heart to do it. And let all the people say, So be it.
Maldito aquele que não confirmar as palavras desta lei, não as fazendo. E todo o povo dirá: amém.
