Deuteronomii 27
1 praecepit autem Moses et seniores Israhel populo dicentes custodite omne mandatum quod praecipio vobis hodie
And Moses and [the] elderly of Israel command the people, saying, “Keep all the command which I am commanding you today;
2 cumque transieritis Iordanem in terram quam Dominus Deus tuus dabit tibi eriges ingentes lapides et calce levigabis eos
and it has been, in the day that you pass over the Jordan to the land which your God YHWH is giving to you, that you have raised up great stones for yourself, and plastered 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 written on them all the words of this law in your passing over, so that you go into the land which your God YHWH is giving to you—a land flowing with milk and honey, as YHWH, God of your fathers, has spoken to you.
4 quando ergo transieritis Iordanem erige lapides quos ego hodie praecipio vobis in monte Hebal et levigabis calce
And it has been, in your passing over the Jordan, you raise up these stones which I am commanding you today, in Mount Ebal, and you have plastered them with plaster,
5 et aedificabis ibi altare Domino Deo tuo de lapidibus quos ferrum non tetigit
and built an altar there to your God YHWH, an altar of stones; you do not wave iron over them.
6 et de saxis informibus et inpolitis et offeres super eo holocausta Domino Deo tuo
You build the altar of your God YHWH [with] complete stones, and have caused burnt-offerings to ascend on it to your God YHWH,
7 et immolabis hostias pacificas comedesque ibi et epulaberis coram Domino Deo tuo
and sacrificed peace-offerings, and eaten there, and rejoiced before your God YHWH,
8 et scribes super lapides omnia verba legis huius plane et lucide
and written on the stones all the words of this law, well engraved.”
9 dixeruntque Moses et sacerdotes levitici generis ad omnem Israhelem adtende et audi Israhel hodie factus es populus Domini Dei tui
And Moses speaks—the priests, the Levites, also—to all Israel, saying, “Keep silent and hear, O Israel: This day you have become a people for your God YHWH;
10 audies vocem eius et facies mandata atque iustitias quas ego praecipio tibi
and you have listened to the voice of your God YHWH, and done His commands and His statutes which I am commanding you today.”
11 praecepitque Moses populo in die illo dicens
And Moses commands the people on that day, saying,
12 hii stabunt ad benedicendum Domino super montem Garizim Iordane transmisso Symeon Levi Iudas Isachar Ioseph et Beniamin
“These stand on Mount Gerizzim to bless the people, in your passing over the Jordan: Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin.
13 et e regione isti stabunt ad maledicendum in monte Hebal Ruben Gad et Aser Zabulon Dan et Nepthalim
And these stand, for the reviling, on Mount Ebal: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.”
14 et pronuntiabunt Levitae dicentque ad omnes viros Israhel excelsa voce
And the Levites have answered and said to every man of Israel [with] a loud voice:
15 maledictus homo qui facit sculptile et conflatile abominationem Domini opus manuum artificum ponetque illud in abscondito et respondebit omnis populus et dicet amen
