Deuteronomii 27
1 Præcepit autem Moyses et seniores Israel, populo dicentes: Custodite omne mandatum quod præcipio vobis hodie.
And Moses with the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying, Keep all the commandments which I command you this day.
2 Cumque transieritis Iordanem in Terram, quam Dominus Deus tuus dabit tibi, eriges ingentes lapides, et calce levigabis eos,
And it shall be on the day when you shall pass over Jordan to the land which the LORD your God gives you, that you shall set you up great stones, and plaster them with plaster:
3 ut possis in eis scribere omnia verba legis huius, Iordane transmisso: ut introeas Terram, quam Dominus Deus tuus dabit tibi, terram lacte et melle manantem, sicut iuravit patribus tuis.
And you shall write on them all the words of this law, when you are passed over, that you may go in to the land which the LORD your God gives you, a land that flows with milk and honey; as the LORD God of your fathers has promised you.
4 Quando ergo transieritis Iordanem, erigite lapides, quos ego hodie præcipio vobis in monte Hebal, et levigabis eos calce:
Therefore it shall be when you be gone over Jordan, that you shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and you shall plaster them with plaster.
5 et ædificabis ibi altare Domino Deo tuo de lapidibus, quos ferrum non tetigit,
And there shall you build an altar to the LORD your God, an altar of stones: you shall not lift up any iron tool on them.
6 et de saxis informibus et impolitis: et offeres super eo holocausta Domino Deo tuo,
You shall build the altar of the LORD your God of whole stones: and you shall offer burnt offerings thereon to the LORD your God:
7 et immolabis hostias pacificas, comedesque ibi, et epulaberis coram Domino Deo tuo.
And you shall offer peace offerings, and shall eat there, and rejoice before the LORD your God.
8 Et scribes super lapides omnia verba legis huius plane et lucide.
And you shall write on the stones all the words of this law very plainly.
9 Dixeruntque Moyses et sacerdotes Levitici generis ad omnem Israelem: Attende, et audi Israel: Hodie factus es populus Domini Dei tui:
And Moses and the priests the Levites spoke to all Israel, saying, Take heed, and listen, O Israel; this day you are become the people of the LORD your God.
10 audies vocem eius, et facies mandata atque iustitias, quas ego præcipio tibi.
You shall therefore obey the voice of the LORD your God, and do his commandments and his statutes, which I command you this day.
11 Præcepitque Moyses populo in die illo, dicens:
And Moses charged the people the same day, saying,
12 Hi stabunt ad benedicendum populo super montem Garizim, Iordane transmisso: Simeon, Levi, Iudas, Issachar, Ioseph, et Beniamin.
These shall stand on mount Gerizim to bless the people, when you are come over Jordan; Simeon, and Levi, and Judah, and Issachar, and Joseph, and Benjamin:
13 Et e regione isti stabunt ad maledicendum in monte Hebal: Ruben, Gad, et Aser, et Zabulon, Dan et Nephthali.
And these shall stand on mount Ebal to curse; Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
14 Et pronunciabunt Levitæ, dicentque ad omnes viros Israel excelsa voce:
And the Levites shall speak, and say to all the men of Israel with a loud voice,
15 Maledictus homo, qui facit sculptile et conflatile, abominationem Domini, opus manuum artificum, ponetque illud in abscondito. Et respondebit omnis populus, et dicet: Amen.
