Deuteronomy 27:2-3

27:2 When you cross the Jordan River ¹  to the land the Lord your God is giving you, you must erect great stones and cover ²  them with plaster. 27:3 Then you must inscribe on them all the words of this law when you cross over, so that you may enter the land the Lord your God is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey just as the Lord, the God of your ancestors, ³  said to you.

[27:2]  ¹ tn The word “River” is not in the Hebrew text but has been supplied in the translation for clarity.

[27:2]  ² tn Heb “plaster” (so KJV, ASV; likewise in v. 4). In the translation “cover” has been used for stylistic reasons.

[27:3]  ³ tn Heb “fathers.”
