Deuteronomy 27:12 in context

The verses around it, from Deuteronomy 27.

8 And you shall write distinctly upon these stones all the words of this law.”

9 Then Moses and the Levitical priests spoke to all Israel: “Be silent, O Israel, and listen! This day you have become the people of the LORD your God.

10 You shall therefore obey the voice of the LORD your God and follow His commandments and statutes I am giving you today.”

11 On that day Moses commanded the people:

12 “When you have crossed the Jordan, these tribes shall stand on Mount Gerizim to bless the people: Simeon, Levi, Judah, Issachar, Joseph, and Benjamin.

13 And these tribes shall stand on Mount Ebal to deliver the curse: Reuben, Gad, Asher, Zebulun, Dan, and Naphtali.

14 Then the Levites shall proclaim in a loud voice to every Israelite:

15 ‘Cursed is the man who makes a carved idol or molten image—an abomination to the LORD, the work of the hands of a craftsman—and sets it up in secret.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’

16 ‘Cursed is he who dishonors his father or mother.’ And let all the people say, ‘Amen!’
