Mosis na ndị okenye Izrel nyere ndị Izrel iwu sị, “Debenụ iwu ndị a niile m na-enye unu taa.
2 It shall be on the day when you shall pass over the Jordan to the land which Yahweh your God gives you, that you shall set yourself up great stones, and coat them with plaster.

8 You shall write on the stones all the words of this law very plainly.”
Depụta iwu ndị a nke ọma, nʼelu nkume ndị ahụ i guzobere.”
