9. Moses wrote this law, and delivered it to the priests the sons of Levi, who bore the ark of the Lord’s covenant, and to all the elders of Israel.
10. Moses commanded them, saying, “At the end of every seven years, in the set time of the year of release, in the feast of booths,
11. when all Israel has come to appear before the Lord your God in the place which he will choose, you shall read this law before all Israel in their hearing.
12. Assemble the people, the men and the women and the little ones, and the foreigners who are within your gates, that they may hear, and that they may learn, and fear the Lord your God, and observe to do all the words of this law;
13. and that their children, who have not known, may hear, and learn to fear the Lord your God, as long as you live in the land where you go over the Jordan to possess it.”
