Altar on Mount Ebal
1 AND Moyses and the ancients of Israel commanded the people, saying: Keep every commandment that I command you this day.
2 And when you are passed over Jordan into the land, which our Lord thy God will give thee, thou shalt erect great stones, and shalt polish them with plaster.
3 that thou mayst write on them all the words of this law, when thou hast passed over Jordan: that thou mayst enter into the Land, which our Lord thy God will give thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, as he sware to thy fathers.
4 When therefore you are passed Jordan, erect the stones, which I command you this day, in mount Hebal, and thou shalt polish them with plaster:
5 and thou shalt build there an altar to our Lord thy God, of stones, which iron hath not touched,
6 and of stones not fashioned nor polished: and thou shalt put upon it holocausts to our Lord thy God,
7 and shalt immolate pacific hosts, and eat there, and feast before our Lord thy God.
8 And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law plainly and clearly.
9 And Moyses and the Priests of the Levitical stock said to all Israel: Attend, and hear Israel: This day thou art made the people of our Lord thy God:
10 thou shalt hear his voice, and do the commandments and justices, which I command thee.
