2. And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass the Jordan unto the land which the Lord thy God gives thee that thou shalt set thee up great stones and plaster them with plaster;
3. And thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law when thou has passed to enter in unto the land which the Lord thy God gives thee, a land that flows with milk and honey, as the Lord God of thy fathers has said unto thee.
4. Therefore, it shall be when ye have passed 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.
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.
6. Thou shalt build the altar of the Lord thy God of whole stones, and thou shalt offer burnt offerings upon it unto the Lord thy God;
7. and thou shalt offer peace offerings and shalt eat there and rejoice before the Lord thy God.
8. And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law very plainly.
