Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people and said, “Keep all the commandments that I command you today.

You must write on them all the words of this law when you have passed over; that you may go into the land that Yahweh your God is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as Yahweh, the God of your ancestors, has promised you.
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.
When you have passed over the Jordan, set up these stones that I am commanding you about today, on Mount Ebal, and plaster them with plaster.
5 Tu vɔsamlekpui ɖe afi ma na Yehowa, wò Mawu la kple kpe siwo womefu kple gakpo o.
There you must build an altar to Yahweh your God, an altar of stones; but you must raise no iron tool to work the stones.

You must build the altar of Yahweh your God of unworked stones; you must offer burnt offerings on it to Yahweh your God,
7 “Sa ŋutifafavɔ hã ɖe edzi, eye nàɖu nu kple dzidzɔ le afi ma le Yehowa wò Mawu ƒe ŋkume.
and you will sacrifice fellowship offerings and will eat there; you will rejoice before Yahweh your God.

You will write on the stones all the words of this law very plainly.”

10 eya ta ele be nàdze se siwo katã mede na wò la dzi wɔwɔ gɔme egbea.”
You must therefore obey the voice of Yahweh your God and obey his commandments and statutes that I am commanding you today.”
