33All Israel was there, foreigners and citizens alike, with their elders, officers, and judges, standing on opposite sides of the Chest, facing the Levitical priests who carry God’s Covenant Chest. Half of the people stood with their backs to Mount Gerizim and half with their backs to Mount Ebal to bless the People of Israel, just as Moses the servant of God had instructed earlier.

Then all the Israelites—foreigners and native-born alike—along with the elders, officers, and judges, were divided into two groups.

This was all done according to the commands that Moses, the servant of the Lord, had previously given for blessing the people of Israel.
