And Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying, Keep all the commandment which I command you this day.

And thou shall write upon them all the words of this law when thou have passed over, that thou may go in to the land which Jehovah thy God gives thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, as Jehovah, the God of thy fathers, has promised thee.

4 “Ne ètso Yɔdan tɔsisi la la, ɖo kpe siawo ɖe Ebal to la dzi, abe ale si megblɔ na wò ene, eye nàsi akalo na wo.

And it shall be, when ye have passed over the Jordan, that ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou shall plaster them with plaster.

And there thou shall build an altar to Jehovah thy God, an altar of stones. Thou shall lift up no iron upon them.

And thou shall sacrifice peace offerings, and shall eat there, and thou shall rejoice before Jehovah thy God.

And thou shall write upon the stones all the words of this law very plainly.

Thou shall therefore obey the voice of Jehovah thy God, and do his commandments and his statutes, which I command thee this day.
