26:12 When thou hast made an end of tithing all the tithes of thine
increase the third year, which is the year of tithing, and hast given it
unto the Levite, the stranger, the fatherless, and the widow, that they
may eat within thy gates, and be filled;
26:13 Then thou shalt say before the LORD thy God, I have brought away
the hallowed things out of mine house, and also have given them unto the
Levite, and unto the stranger, to the fatherless, and to the widow,
according to all thy commandments which thou hast commanded me: I have
not transgressed thy commandments, neither have I forgotten them.
26:14 I have not eaten thereof in my mourning, neither have I taken away
ought thereof for any unclean use, nor given ought thereof for the dead:
but I have hearkened to the voice of the LORD my God, and have done
according to all that thou hast commanded me.
26:15 Look down from thy holy habitation, from heaven, and bless thy
people Israel, and the land which thou hast given us, as thou swarest
unto our fathers, a land that floweth with milk and honey.
26:16 This day the LORD thy God hath commanded thee to do these statutes
and judgments: thou shalt therefore keep and do them with all thine
heart, and with all thy soul.
26:17 Thou hast avouched the LORD this day to be thy God, and to walk in
his ways, and to keep his statutes, and his commandments, and his
judgments, and to hearken unto his voice:
26:18 And the LORD hath avouched thee this day to be his peculiar
people, as he hath promised thee, and that thou shouldest keep all his
commandments;
26:19 And to make thee high above all nations which he hath made, in
praise, and in name, and in honour; and that thou mayest be an holy
people unto the LORD thy God, as he hath spoken.
27:1 And Moses with the elders of Israel commanded the people, saying,
Keep all the commandments which I command you this day.
27:2 And it shall be on the day when ye shall pass over Jordan unto the
land which the LORD thy God giveth thee, that thou shalt set thee up
great stones, and plaister them with plaister:
27:3 And thou shalt write upon them all the words of this law, when thou
art passed over, that thou mayest go in unto the land which the LORD thy
God giveth thee, a land that floweth with milk and honey; as the LORD
God of thy fathers hath promised thee.
27:4 Therefore it shall be when ye be gone over Jordan, that ye shall
set up these stones, which I command you this day, in mount Ebal, and
thou shalt plaister them with plaister.
27:5 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.
27:6 Thou shalt build the altar of the LORD thy God of whole stones: and
thou shalt offer burnt offerings thereon unto the LORD thy God:
27:7 And thou shalt offer peace offerings, and shalt eat there, and
rejoice before the LORD thy God.
27:8 And thou shalt write upon the stones all the words of this law very
plainly.
