- as Moses the servant of the LORD had commanded the Israelites. He built it according to what is written in the Book of the Law of Moses--an altar of uncut stones, on which no iron tool had been used. On it they offered to the LORD burnt offerings and sacrificed fellowship offerings.
- There, in the presence of the Israelites, Joshua copied on stones the law of Moses, which he had written.
- All Israel, aliens and citizens alike, with their elders, officials and judges, were standing on both sides of the ark of the covenant of the LORD, facing those who carried it--the priests, who were Levites. Half of the people stood in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, as Moses the servant of the LORD had formerly commanded when he gave instructions to bless the people of Israel.
- Afterward, Joshua read all the words of the law--the blessings and the curses--just as it is written in the Book of the Law.
- There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded that Joshua did not read to the whole assembly of Israel, including the women and children, and the aliens who lived among them.

- 是用沒有動過鐵器的整石頭築的、照著耶和華僕人摩西所吩咐以色列人的話、正如摩西律法書上所寫的.眾人在這壇上給耶和華奉獻燔祭、和平安祭。
- 約書亞在那裡、當著以色列人面前、將摩西所寫的律法抄寫在石頭上。
- 以色列眾人、無論是本地人、是寄居的、和長老、官長、並審判官、都站在約櫃兩旁、在抬耶和華約櫃的祭司利未人面前、一半對著基利心山、一半對著以巴路山、為以色列民祝福、正如耶和華僕人摩西先前所吩咐的。
- 隨後約書亞將律法上祝福咒詛的話、照著律法書上一切所寫的、都宣讀了一遍。
- 摩西所吩咐的一切話、約書亞在以色列全會眾、和婦女、孩子、並他們中間寄居的外人面前、沒有一句不宣讀的。
