Deuteronomii 27
1 Praecepit autem Moyses et seniores Israel, populo dicentes: Custodite omne mandatum quod praecipio 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 ye shall pass over Jordan to the land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, that thou shalt set thee 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 thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law, when thou hast passed over, that thou mayest enter in to 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 Quando ergo transieritis Iordanem, erigite lapides, quos ego hodie praecipio vobis in monte Hebal, et levigabis eos calce:
Therefore it shall be when ye have gone over Jordan, that ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and thou shalt plaster them with plaster.
5 et aedificabis ibi altare Domino Deo tuo de lapidibus, quos ferrum non tetigit,
And there shalt thou build an altar to the LORD thy God, an altar of stones: thou shalt not lift up any iron tool upon them.
6 et de saxis informibus et impolitis: et offeres super eo holocausta Domino Deo tuo,
Thou shalt build the altar of the LORD thy God of whole stones: and thou shalt offer on it burnt offerings to the LORD thy God:
7 et immolabis hostias pacificas, comedesque ibi, et epulaberis coram Domino Deo tuo.
And thou shalt offer peace offerings, and shalt eat there, and rejoice before the LORD thy God.
8 Et scribes super lapides omnia verba legis huius plane et lucide.
And thou shalt write upon 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 hearken, O Israel; this day thou art become the people of the LORD thy God.
10 audies vocem eius, et facies mandata atque iustitias, quas ego praecipio tibi.
Thou shalt therefore obey the voice of the LORD thy God, and do his commandments and his statutes, which I command thee this day.
11 Praecepitque 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 upon mount Gerizim to bless the people, when ye have 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 upon mount Ebal to curse; Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.
14 Et pronunciabunt Levitae, 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.
