And Moses with the ancients of Israel commanded the people, saying: Keep every commandment that I command you this day.

And when you are passed over the Jordan into the land which the Lord thy God will give thee, thou shalt set up great stones, and shalt plaster them over with plaster,

That thou mayst write on them all the words of this law, when thou art passed over the Jordan: that thou mayst enter into the land which the Lord thy God will give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, as he swore to thy fathers.
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.
Therefore when you are passed over the Jordan, set up the stones which I command you this day, in mount Hebal, and thou shalt plaster them with plaster:
5 Tu vɔsamlekpui ɖe afi ma na Yehowa, wò Mawu la kple kpe siwo womefu kple gakpo o.
And thou shalt build there an altar to the Lord thy God, of stones which iron hath not touched,
6 Tu vɔsamlekpui la kple kpe siwo womekpa o, eye nàsa numevɔ na Yehowa, wò Mawu la ɖe vɔsamlekpui la dzi.
And of stones not fashioned nor polished: and thou shalt offer upon it holocausts to the Lord thy God:
7 “Sa ŋutifafavɔ hã ɖe edzi, eye nàɖu nu kple dzidzɔ le afi ma le Yehowa wò Mawu ƒe ŋkume.
And shalt immolate peace victims, and eat there, and feast before the Lord thy God.

And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law plainly and clearly,

10 eya ta ele be nàdze se siwo katã mede na wò la dzi wɔwɔ gɔme egbea.”
Thou shalt hear his voice, and do the commandments and justices which I command thee.
