30 Then Yehoshua built an altar to Israel’s God, Yahweh on Mt. Eybal[ref] 31 just like Yahweh’s servant Mosheh had instructed them. (It was written in the scroll of the rules from Mosheh that it must be an altar made from whole stones that haven’t been chiselled with iron tools.) Then they offered burnt offerings to Yahweh on it, plus they sacrificed peace offerings,[ref] 32 and while the Israelis watched, Yehoshua inscribed onto the stones there,[fn] a copy of the rules passed on by Mosheh. 33 Then all of Israel and their elders and officials and judges were standing some on each side of the box containing Yahweh’s agreement, facing the priests and the Levites who carried the box. Any resident foreigners were also there. Half of the people stood on the Mt. Gerazim side, and half on the Mt. Eybal side of the valley, just like the way that Yahweh’s servant Mosheh had originally commanded for blessing the people.[ref]

34 Then Yehoshua read all the law, including the blessings and the curses, as per everything that’s written in the book of the law. 35 He read out every single word that Mosheh had written, in front of the entire assembly of Israel, including the women, children, and foreigners living among them.
