9 And Moses with the priests the Levites spoke unto all Israel, saying, Take heed and hearken, O Israel; today thou art become the people of the LORD thy God. 10 Thou shalt, therefore, hear the voice of the LORD thy God and do his commandments and his statutes, which I command thee this day.
11 And Moses charged the people the same day, saying, 12 These shall stand upon Mount Gerizim to bless the people when ye have passed the Jordan: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin. 13 And these shall stand upon Mount Ebal to pronounce the curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali. 14 And the Levites shall speak and say unto all the men of Israel with a loud voice:
15 Cursed is the man that makes any graven or molten image, an abomination unto the LORD, the work of the hands of the craftsman, and puts it in a secret place. And all the people shall answer and say, Amen.
16 Cursed is he that dishonours his father or his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen.
17 Cursed is he that reduces his neighbour’s border. And all the people shall say, Amen.
18 Cursed is he that makes the blind to err in the way. And all the people shall say, Amen.
19 Cursed is he that twists the rights of the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow. And all the people shall say, Amen.
20 Cursed is he that lies with his father’s wife because he uncovers his father’s skirt. And all the people shall say, Amen.
21 Cursed is he that lies with any manner of beast. And all the people shall say, Amen.
22 Cursed is he that lies with his sister, the daughter of his father or the daughter of his mother. And all the people shall say, Amen.
23 Cursed is he that lies with his mother-in-law. And all the people shall say, Amen.
24 Cursed is he that smites his neighbour secretly. And all the people shall say, Amen.
25 Cursed is he that takes a bribe to slay an innocent person. And all the people shall say, Amen.
26 Cursed is he that does not confirm all the words of this law to do them. And all the people shall say, Amen.
