Deuteronomii 27
1 Praecepit autem Moyses et seniores Israel, populo dicentes: Custodite omne mandatum quod praecipio vobis hodie.
And Moses and the elders of Israel commanded, saying, Keep all these commands, all that I command you this day.
2 Cumque transieritis Iordanem in Terram, quam Dominus Deus tuus dabit tibi, eriges ingentes lapides, et calce levigabis eos,
And it shall come to pass in the day when ye shall cross over Jordan into the land which the Lord thy God gives thee, that thou shalt set up for thyself great stones, and shalt plaster them with plaster.
3 ut possis in eis scribere omnia verba legis huius, Iordane transmisso: ut introeas Terram, quam Dominus Deus tuus dabit tibi, terram lacte et melle manantem, sicut iuravit patribus tuis.
And thou shalt write on these stones all the words of this law, as soon as ye have crossed Jordan, when ye are entered into the land, which the Lord God of thy fathers gives thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, according as the Lord God of thy fathers said to thee.
4 Quando ergo transieritis Iordanem, erigite lapides, quos ego hodie praecipio vobis in monte Hebal, et levigabis eos calce:
And it shall be as soon as ye are gone over Jordan, ye shall set up these stones, which I command thee this day, on mount Gaebal, and thou shalt plaster them with plaster.
5 et aedificabis ibi altare Domino Deo tuo de lapidibus, quos ferrum non tetigit,
And thou shalt build there an altar to the Lord thy God, an altar of stones; thou shalt not lift up iron upon it.
6 et de saxis informibus et impolitis: et offeres super eo holocausta Domino Deo tuo,
Of whole stones shalt thou build an altar to the Lord thy God, and thou shalt offer upon it whole-burnt-offerings to the Lord thy God.
7 et immolabis hostias pacificas, comedesque ibi, et epulaberis coram Domino Deo tuo.
And thou shalt there offer a peace-offering; and thou shalt eat and be filled, and rejoice before the Lord thy God.
8 Et scribes super lapides omnia verba legis huius plane et lucide.
And thou shalt write upon the stones all this law very plainly.
9 Dixeruntque Moyses et sacerdotes Levitici generis ad omnem Israelem: Attende, et audi Israel: Hodie factus es populus Domini Dei tui:
And Moses and the priests the Levites spoke to all Israel, saying, Be silent and hear, O Israel; this day thou art become a people to the Lord thy God.
10 audies vocem eius, et facies mandata atque iustitias, quas ego praecipio tibi.
And thou shalt hearken to the voice of the Lord thy God, and shalt do all his commands, and his ordinances, as many as I command thee this day.
11 Praecepitque Moyses populo in die illo, dicens:
And Moses charged the people on that day, saying,
12 Hi stabunt ad benedicendum populo super montem Garizim, Iordane transmisso: Simeon, Levi, Iudas, Issachar, Ioseph, et Beniamin.
These shall stand to bless the people on mount Garizin having gone over Jordan; Symeon, Levi, Judas, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin.
13 Et e regione isti stabunt ad maledicendum in monte Hebal: Ruben, Gad, et Aser, et Zabulon, Dan et Nephthali.
And these shall stand for cursing on mount Gaebal; Ruben, Gad, and Aser, Zabulon, Dan, and Nephthali.
14 Et pronunciabunt Levitae, dicentque ad omnes viros Israel excelsa voce:
And the Levites shall answer and say to all Israel with a loud voice,
