Book 05 : TORAH - DEVARIM (DEUTERONOMY) - Chapter 027
27:001
And Moses and the elders of Israel commanded the people,
saying: 'Keep all the commandment which I command you this day
27:002
And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass over the
Jordan unto the land which HaShem thy G-d giveth thee, that thou shalt set thee
up great stones, and plaster them with plaster
27:003
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 HaShem thy
G-d giveth thee, a land flowing with milk and honey, as HaShem, the G-d of thy
fathers, hath promised thee
27:004
And it shall be when ye are passed over the Jordan, that ye
shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou
shalt plaster them with plaster
27:005
And there shalt thou build an altar unto HaShem thy G-d, an
altar of stones; thou shalt lift up no iron tool upon them
27:006
Thou shalt build the altar of HaShem thy G-d of unhewn
stones; and thou shalt offer burnt-offerings thereon unto HaShem thy G-d
27:007
And thou shalt sacrifice peace-offerings, and shalt eat
there; and thou shalt rejoice before HaShem thy G-d
27:008
And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this
law very plainly.
27:009
And Moses and the priests the Levites spoke unto all
Israel, saying: 'Keep silence, and hear, O Israel; this day thou art become a
people unto HaShem thy G-d
27:010
Thou shalt therefore hearken to the voice of HaShem thy
G-d, and do His commandments and His statutes, which I command thee this day.
27:011
And Moses charged the people the same day, saying
27:012
'These shall stand upon mount Gerizim to bless the people,
when ye are passed over the Jordan: Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar,
and Joseph, and Benjamin
27:013
and these shall stand upon mount Ebal for the curse:
Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali
27:014
And the Levites shall speak, and say unto all the men of
Israel with a loud voice
27:015
Cursed be the man that maketh a graven or molten image, an
abomination unto HaShem, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and setteth it
up in secret. And all the people shall answer and say: Amen
27:016
Cursed be he that dishonoureth his father or his mother.
And all the people shall say: Amen
27:017
Cursed be he that removeth his neighbour's landmark. And
all the people shall say: Amen
27:018
Cursed be he that maketh the blind to go astray in the
way. And all the people shall say: Amen
27:019
Cursed be he that perverteth the justice due to the
stranger, fatherless, and widow. And all the people shall say: Amen
27:020
Cursed be he that lieth with his father's wife; because he
hath uncovered his father's skirt. And all the people shall say: Amen
27:021
Cursed be he that lieth with any manner of beast. And all
the people shall say: Amen
27:022
Cursed be he that lieth with his sister, the daughter of
his father, or the daughter of his mother. And all the people shall say: Amen
27:023
Cursed be he that lieth with his mother-in-law. And all
the people shall say: Amen
27:024
Cursed be he that smiteth his neighbour in secret. And all
the people shall say: Amen
27:025
Cursed be he that taketh a bribe to slay an innocent
person. And all the people shall say: Amen
27:026
Cursed be he that confirmeth not the words of this law to
do them. And all the people shall say: Amen.
