The curses from disobeying God

11 On that same day Moses/I said to the Israeli people, 12 “After you have crossed over the Jordan River, the tribes of Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin must stand on Gerizim Mountain and request Yahweh to bless the people. 13 And the tribes of Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali must stand on Ebal Mountain and listen to the things that Yahweh will do when he curses the people.

14 The descendants of Levi must shout these words loudly:

15 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who makes an idol of stone, or of wood, or of metal, and secretly sets it up and worships it.

Yahweh considers that those things, made by humans [SYN], are detestable/disgusting.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

16 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who dishonors his father or his mother.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

17 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who removes someone else’s markers of property boundaries.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

18 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who leads a blind person to go ◄in the wrong direction/where that person does not want to go►.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

19 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who deprives foreigners or orphans or widows of the things that the laws state must be done for them.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

20 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who ◄shows no respect for/disgraces his father►

by having sex with [EUP] any of his father’s wives.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

21 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who has sex [EUP] with any animal.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

22 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who has sex with his sister or with his half-sister.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

23 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who has sex with [EUP] his mother-in-law.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

24 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who secretly murders someone else.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

25 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who accepts a bribe to murder someone who ◄is innocent/has not done something that is wrong.►’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’

26 ‘Yahweh will curse anyone who disobeys these laws and refuses to declare that these laws are good.’

And all the people must reply, ‘◄Amen/We want that to happen►.’ ”
