Joshua 8:30-35
30Then Joshua built an altar to the Lord, the God of Israel, in 1Mount Ebal,
31just as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded the sons of Israel, as it is written in the book of the law of Moses, 2an altar of uncut stones on which no man had wielded an iron tool; and they offered burnt offerings on it to the Lord, and sacrificed peace offerings.
32He 3wrote there on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which 4he had written, in the presence of the sons of Israel.
335All Israel with their elders and officers and their judges were standing on both sides of the ark before the Levitical priests who carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, the stranger as well as the native. Half of them stood in front of 6Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, just as Moses the servant of the Lord had given command at first to bless the people of Israel.
34Then afterward he read all the words of the law, the blessing and the curse, according to all that is written in 7the book of the law.
35There was not a word of all that Moses had commanded which Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel 8with the women and the little ones and the strangers who were 9living among them.
