Deuteronomy 27

The Bible in Basic English BBE

1 Then Moses and the responsible men of Israel gave the people these orders: Keep all the orders which I have given you this day;

2 And on the day when you go over Jordan into the land which the Lord your God is giving you, put up great stones, coating them with building-paste,

3 And writing on them all the words of this law, after you have gone over; so that you may take the heritage which the Lord your God is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as the Lord, the God of your fathers, has said.

4 And when you have gone over Jordan, you are to put up these stones, as I have said to you today, in Mount Ebal, and have them coated with building-paste.

5 There you are to make an altar to the Lord your God, of stones on which no iron instrument has been used.

6 You are to make the altar of the Lord your God of uncut stones; offering on it burned offerings to the Lord your God:

7 And you are to make your peace-offerings, feasting there with joy before the Lord your God.

8 And put on the stones all the words of this law, writing them very clearly.

9 Then Moses and the priests, the Levites, said to all Israel, Be quiet and give ear, O Israel; today you have become the people of the Lord your God.

10 For this cause you are to give ear to the voice of the Lord your God, and do his orders and his laws which I give you this day.

11 That same day Moses said to the people,

12 These are to take their places on Mount Gerizim for blessing the people when you have gone over Jordan: Simeon and Levi and Judah and Issachar and Joseph and Benjamin;

13 And these are to be on Mount Ebal for the curse: Reuben, Gad, and Asher, and Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.

14 Then the Levites are to say in a loud voice to all the men of Israel,

15 Cursed is the man who makes any image of wood or stone or metal, disgusting to the Lord, the work of man's hands, and puts it up in secret. And let all the people say, So be it.

16 Cursed is he who does not give honour to his father or mother. And let all the people say, So be it.

17 Cursed is he who takes his neighbour's landmark from its place. And let all the people say, So be it.

18 Cursed is he by whom the blind are turned out of the way. And let all the people say, So be it.

19 Cursed is he who gives a wrong decision in the cause of a man from a strange land, or of one without a father, or of a widow. And let all the people say, So be it.

20 Cursed is he who has sex relations with his father's wife, for he has put shame on his father. And let all the people say, So be it.

21 Cursed is he who has sex relations with any sort of beast. And let all the people say, So be it.

22 Cursed is he who has sex relations with his sister, the daughter of his father or of his mother. And let all the people say, So be it.

23 Cursed is he who has sex relations with his mother-in-law. And let all the people say, So be it.

24 Cursed is he who takes his neighbour's life secretly. And let all the people say, So be it.

25 Cursed is he who for a reward puts to death one who has done no wrong. And let all the people say, So be it.

26 Cursed is he who does not take this law to heart to do it. And let all the people say, So be it.

1 7 And Moshe with the zekenim of Yisroel commanded the people, saying, Be shomer over all the mitzvot which I command you today.

2 And it shall be on the yom when ye shall pass over Yarden unto Ha’Aretz which Hashem Eloheicha giveth thee, that thou shalt set thee up avanim gedolot, and plaster them with plaster;

3 And thou shalt write upon them kol divrei hatorah hazot, when thou art passed over, that thou mayest go in unto Ha’Aretz which Hashem Eloheicha giveth thee, Eretz zavat cholov udevash; as Hashem Elohei Avoteicha hath promised thee.

4 Therefore it shall be when ye be gone over Yarden, that ye shall set up these avanim, which I command you today, in Mt Eival, and thou shalt plaster them with plaster.

5 And there shalt thou build a mizbe’ach unto Hashem Eloheicha, a mizbe’ach of avanim; thou shalt not use any barzel (iron [tool]) upon them.

6 Thou shalt build the mizbe’ach of Hashem Eloheicha of avanim shleimot (uncut stones); and thou shalt offer olot thereon unto Hashem Eloheicha;

7 And thou shalt offer shelamim, and shalt eat there, and rejoice before Hashem Eloheicha.

8 And thou shalt write very clearly upon the avanim kol divrei hatorah hazot.

9 And Moshe and the kohanim who are Levi’im spoke unto kol Yisroel, saying, Take heed, and shema, Yisroel; today thou art become the people of Hashem Eloheicha.

10 Thou shalt therefore obey the voice of Hashem Eloheicha, and do His mitzvot and His chukkim, which I command thee today.

11 And Moshe charged the people the same yom, saying,

12 These shall stand upon Mt Gerizim to bless the people, when ye are come over Yarden; Shimeon, and Levi, and Yehudah, and Yissakhar, and Yosef, and Binyamin;

13 And these shall stand upon Mt Eival fot the curse: Reuven, Gad, and Asher, and Zevulun, Dan, and Naphtali.

14 And the Levi’im shall speak, and say unto all the men of Yisroel with a loud voice,

15 Arur (cursed) be the ish that maketh any pesel (graven image) or massekhah (molten image), a to’evah (abomination) unto Hashem, the work of the hands of the charash (craftsman), and sets it up in a secret place. And kol HaAm shall answer and say, Omein.
