31 as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded the children of Israel, as it is written in the Book of the Law of Moses: a“an altar of whole stones over which no man has wielded an iron tool.” And bthey offered on it burnt offerings to the Lord, and sacrificed peace offerings.  
32 And there, in the presence of the children of Israel, ahe wrote on the stones a copy of the law of Moses, which he had written.  
33 Then all Israel, with their elders and officers and judges, stood on either side of the ark before the priests, the Levites, awho bore the ark of the covenant of the Lord, bthe stranger as well as he who was born among them. Half of them were in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, cas Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded before, that they should bless the people of Israel.
