2. And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass over * Jordan unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth * thee, that thou shalt set thee up * great stones, and plaister * them with plaister:
3. And thou shalt write * upon them all the words of this law, when thou art passed over * , that thou mayest go in * unto the land which the LORD thy God giveth * thee, a land that floweth * with milk and honey; as the LORD God of thy fathers hath promised * thee.
4. Therefore it shall be when ye be gone over * Jordan, that ye shall set up * these stones, which I command * you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou shalt plaister them with plaister * .
5. And there shalt thou build * an altar unto the LORD thy God, an altar of stones: thou shalt not lift up * any iron tool upon them.

8. And thou shalt write * upon the stones all the words of this law very * plainly * .
9. And Moses and the priests the Levites spake * unto all Israel, saying * , Take heed * , and hearken * , O Israel; this day thou art become * the people of the LORD thy God.
