Joshua 8:30-35

Joshua Renews the Covenant

30At that time Joshua built an altar to the Lord, the God of Israel, ron Mount Ebal, 31just as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded the people of Israel, as it is written in the Book of the Law of Moses, “an altar of uncut stones, upon which no man has wielded an iron tool.” And they offered on it burnt offerings to the Lord and sacrificed peace offerings. 32And there, in the presence of the people of Israel, he wrote on sthe stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he had written. 33And all Israel, tsojourner as well as native born, with their elders and officers and their judges, stood on opposite sides of the ark before the Levitical priests uwho carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, half of them in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, vjust as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded at the first, to bless the people of Israel. 34And afterward whe read all the words of the law, xthe blessing and the curse, according to all that is written in the Book of the Law. 35There was not a word of all that Moses commanded that Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel, yand the women, and the little ones, and zthe sojourners who lived
Or traveled
among them.
