Deuteronomio 27
1 Moisés con los ancianos de Israel, dio esta orden al pueblo: “Guardad todo el mandamiento que hoy os prescribo.
And Moses and [the] elderly of Israel command the people, saying, “Keep all the command which I am commanding you today;
2 Cuando hayas pasado el Jordán para entrar en el país que Yahvé, tu Dios, te va a dar, levantarás unas grandes piedras que revocarás con cal,
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 y escribirás sobre ellas todas las palabras de esta ley, pasado que hayas (el Jordán) para entrar en la tierra que Yahvé, tu Dios, te dará, tierra que mana leche y miel, como Yahvé, el Dios de tus padres, te lo tiene prometido.
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 Cuando, pues, hayas pasado el Jordán levantaréis estas piedras, como os mando hoy, en el monte Ebal, y las revocaréis con cal.
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 Erigirás allí un altar a Yahvé, tu Dios, un altar de piedras, a las que no haya tocado instrumento de hierro.
and built an altar there to your God YHWH, an altar of stones; you do not wave iron over them.
6 De piedras toscas harás ese altar para Yahvé, tu Dios, y ofrecerás en él holocaustos a Yahvé, tu Dios.
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 Ofrecerás sacrificios pacíficos; y comerás allí y te regocijarás en presencia de Yahvé, Dios tuyo.
and sacrificed peace-offerings, and eaten there, and rejoiced before your God YHWH,
8 Escribirás sobre las piedras todas las palabras de esta ley en forma bien clara.”
and written on the stones all the words of this law, well engraved.”
9 Entonces Moisés, con los sacerdotes levitas, habló a todo Israel, diciendo: “Guarda silencio y escucha, oh Israel. Hoy has sido constituido pueblo de Yahvé, Dios tuyo.
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 Escucha, pues, la voz de Yahvé, tu Dios, y cumple sus mandamientos y sus leyes que hoy te prescribo.”
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 En aquel día, Moisés mandó al pueblo, diciendo:
And Moses commands the people on that day, saying,
12 “Pasado que hayáis el Jordán, se pondrán sobre el monte Garizim, para bendecir al pueblo estas (tribus): Simeón, Leví, Judá, Isacar, José y Benjamín.
“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 Y para maldecir se pondrán sobre el monte Ebal las siguientes (tribus): Rubén, Gad, Aser, Zabulón, Dan y Neftalí.
And these stand, for the reviling, on Mount Ebal: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.”
14 Entonces los levitas tomarán la palabra, y en voz alta dirán a todos los hombres de Israel:
And the Levites have answered and said to every man of Israel [with] a loud voice:
15 ‘¡Maldito el hombre que hace estatua o imagen de fundición, abominación a Yahvé, obra de artífice, y la pone en lugar oculto!’ Y responderá todo el pueblo y dirá: ‘¡Amén!’
“Cursed [is] the man who makes a carved and molten image, an abomination [to] YHWH, work of the hands of a craftsman, and has put [it] in a secret place.” And all the people have answered and said, “Amen.”

“Cursed [is] he who is taking a bribe to strike a person, innocent blood.” And all the people have said, “Amen.”
26 ‘¡Maldito el que no persevera en las palabras de esta Ley para ponerlas en práctica!’ Y todo el pueblo dirá: ‘¡Amén!’
“Cursed [is] he who does not establish the words of this law, to do them.” And all the people have said, “Amen.”
