33 And all Israel, ^hsojourner as well as native born, with their elders and ⁱofficers and their judges, stood on opposite sides of the ark before the Levitical priests ^jwho carried the ark of the covenant of the Lord, half of them in front of Mount Gerizim and half of them in front of Mount Ebal, ^kjust as Moses the servant of the Lord had commanded at the first, to bless the people of Israel.

35 There was not a word of all that Moses commanded that Joshua did not read before all the assembly of Israel, and the women, and the little ones, and the sojourners who lived¹ among them.
