Deuteronomy 27:3-5
1599 Geneva Bible
3 [a]And shalt write upon them all the words of this Law, when thou shalt come over, that thou mayest go into the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee: a land that floweth with milk and honey, as the Lord God of thy fathers hath promised thee.
4 Therefore when ye shall pass over Jordan, ye shall set up these stones, which I command you this day in mount Ebal, and thou shalt plaster them with plaster.
5 (A)And there shalt thou build unto the Lord thy God an altar, even an altar of stones: thou shalt lift none [b]iron instrument upon them.
