Deuteronomy 27:1-10 - Ceremonies

1 And Moses and the old men of Israel will command the people, saying, Watch every command which I command you this day. 2 And it was in the day which ye shall pass over Jordan to the land that Jehovah thy God gave to thee, and set up to thee great stones, and plaster them with lime. 3 And write upon them all the words of this law in thy passing over, so that thou shalt go in to the land that Jehovah thy God gave to thee; a land flowing milk and honey, as Jehovah the God of thy fathers spake to thee. 4 And being in your passing over Jordan ye shall set up these stones which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and plaster them with lime. 5 And build there an altar to Jehovah thy God, an altar of stones: thou shalt not lift up iron upon them. 6 Whole stones thou shalt build the altar of Jehovah thy God: and bring up upon it burnt-offerings to Jehovah thy God: 7 And sacrifice peace, and eat there and rejoice before Jehovah thy God. 8 And write upon the stones all the words of this law very diligently.

9 And Moses will speak, and the priests, the Levites, to all Israel, saying, Be silent and hear, Israel; this day thou wert for a people to Jehovah thy God. 10 And hear to the voice of Jehovah thy God and do his commands and his laws which I command thee this day.
