Ki Tavo

Ki Tavo 1st Aliyah (Deu 26)
1 And it shall be, when you come into the land which ‫יהוה‬ your
Elohim, gives you as an inheritance, and you possess it and
dwell in it, 2 that you shall take some of the first of all the
produce of the soil, which you will bring from your land, which
‫יהוה‬ your Elohim is giving you, and you shall put them in a
basket and go to the place which ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim, will choose
to make his Name dwell there

3 and you shall come to the cohen who is in office at that time,
and say to him, “I declare this day to ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim that I
have come to the land which ‫יהוה‬ swore to our fathers to give
us.” 4 Then the cohen shall take the basket from your hand
and set it down before the altar of ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim.

5 You shall answer and say before ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim: “My father
was a nomad from Aram, and he went down to Mitsrayim and
sojourned there, few in number; but there he became a great,
mighty and numerous nation. 6 And the Mitsrites treated us
harshly and afflicted us, and imposed hard labour on us. 7
Then we cried to ‫יהוה‬ Elohim of our fathers, and ‫יהוה‬ heard
our voice and saw our affliction and our toil and our
oppression.

8 And ‫יהוה‬ brought us out of Mitsrayim with a strong hand and
an outstretched arm and with great fear and with signs and
wonders. 9 And he has brought us to this place and has given
us this land, even a land flowing with milk and honey; 10 and
now behold, I have brought the first of the produce of the land
which you, ‫,יהוה‬ have given me.” And you shall set it down
before ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim, and worship before ‫יהוה‬ your
Elohim.

Ki Tavo 1st-2nd Aliyah (Deu 26)
11 And you and the Levi and the stranger who is among you shall
rejoice in every good thing which ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim has given
you and your house.
12 When you have completed tithing all the tithes of your
increase in the third year, which is the year of the tithe, you
shall give them to the Levi, the stranger, the fatherless and the
widow, so that they may eat in your gates and be satisfied.

Ki Tavo 2nd Aliyah (Deu 26)
13 Then you shall say to ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim: “I have removed the
set-apart portion from my house and have also given it to the
Levi, the stranger, the fatherless and the widow, according to
all your mitzvot that you commanded me. I have not
transgressed your mitzvot neither have I forgotten any of them.

Ki Tavo 2nd Aliyah (Deu 26)
14 I have not eaten any of it second tithe while in my mourning,
nor have I removed ought thereof for any unclean use, nor
have I offered ought thereof for the dead. But I have obeyed
‫יהוה‬ my Elohim; and I have done according to all that you
commanded me.

Ki Tavo 2nd-3rd Aliyah (Deu 26)
15 Look down from your set-apart dwelling, from the heavens,
and bless your people Isra’el and the land which you have
given to us as you swore to our fathers, a land flowing with milk
and honey.”
16 This day, ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim is commanding you to do these
laws and right-rulings, and you shall guard and do them with all
your heart and with all your being.

Ki Tavo 3rd Aliyah (Deu 26)
17 You have selected ‫יהוה‬ this day, to be your Elohim, and to
walk in his ways and to guard his laws, his mitzvot and his
right-rulings—and to obey him. 18 And ‫יהוה‬ has selected you
this day to be his treasured people, as he spoke to you, and so
that you shall guard all his mitzvot,

Ki Tavo 3rd-4th Aliyah (Deu 26-27)
19 and to set you high above all the nations that he made, so that
you will have praise, a distinguished name and honor; and so
that you will be a set-apart people to ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim, as he
promised.
1 Moshe and the elders of Isra’el commanded the people, saying:
“Observe all of the mitzvot that I give you this day.

Ki Tavo 4th Aliyah (Deu 27)
2 And it shall be, on the day that you cross the Yarden to the land
‫יהוה‬ your Elohim is giving you, that you shall set up for
yourselves large stones, and plaster them with plaster. 3 When
you cross, you shall write upon them all the words of this
Torah, in order that you may come to the land ‫יהוה‬ your
Elohim is giving you, a land flowing with milk and honey, as
‫יהוה‬ Elohim of your fathers, has spoken to you.

4 it shall be, when you cross the Yarden, that you shall set up
these stones, regarding which I command you this day on
Mount ‘Eival, and you shall plaster them with plaster. 5 there,
you shall build an altar ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim, an altar of stones.
You shall not use any iron toolupon them. 6 You shall build the
altar ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim, out of complete stones and on it, you
shall offer up burnt offerings to ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim.

7 And you shall peace offerings, andyou shall eat there, and you
shall rejoice ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim. 8 You shall write upon the
stones all the words of this Torah, very plainly.
9 Moshe and the cohanim, the L’vi’im, spoke to all Isra’el, saying,
“Pay attention and hear, O Isra’el! This day, you have become
the people of ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim.

10 You shall therefore obey‫יהוה‬ your Elohim and do his mitzvot
and his laws which I command you this day.”

11 Moshe also commanded the people on that day, saying: 12
When you cross the Yarden, these shall stand on Mount
G’rizim to bless the people: Shim‘on, Levi, Y’hudah, Yissakhar,
Yosef, and Binyamin. 13 For the curse, these shall stand on
Mount ‘Eival: Re’uven, Gad, Asher, Z’vulun, Dan, and Naftali.
14 The L’vi’im shall then speak and say to all the men of Isra’el
with a loud voice:

15 “Cursed is the man who makes an idol or a moulded image,
an abomination to ‫,יהוה‬ the work of the hands of the
craftsman, and sets it up in secret.” And all the people shall
answer and say, “Amen!” 16 “Cursed is he who dishonors his
father or mother.” And all the people shall say, “Amen!” 17
“Cursed is he who moves his neighbor’s boundary mark.” And
all the people shall say, “Amen!”

18 “Cursed is he who misleads the blind person on the way.” And
all the people shall say, “Amen!” 19 “Cursed is he who twists
the justice due the stranger, fatherless, and widow.” And all the
people shall say, “Amen!” 20 “Cursed is he who lies with his
father’s wife, because he has uncovered his father’s bed.” And
all the people shall say, “Amen!” 21 “Cursed is he who lies with
any beast.” And all the people shall say, “Amen!”

22 “Cursed is he who lies with his sister, the daughter of his
father or of his mother.” And all the people shall say, “Amen!”
23 “Cursed is he who lies with his mother-in-law.” And all the
people shall say, “Amen!” 24 “Cursed is he who smites his
neighbour in secret.” And all the people shall say, “Amen!” 25
“Cursed is he who takes a bribe to strike down an innocent
being.” And all the people shall say, “Amen!”

Ki Tavo 5th Aliyah (Deu 27-28)
26 “Cursed is he who does not establish all the words of this
Torah by doing them.” And all the people shall say, “Amen!”
1 Now it shall be, if you diligently obey ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim, being
careful to do all his mitzvot which I command you today, ‫יהוה‬
your Elohim shall set you high above all the nations of the
earth. 2 All these blessings shall come upon you and overtake
you if you obey ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim:

3 Blessed shall you be in the city, and blessed shall you be in the
field.
4 Blessed shall be the fruit of your body and the fruit of your
ground and the fruit of your beasts—the increase of your cattle
and the offspring of your flock.
5 Blessed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.

Ki Tavo 5th-6th Aliyah (Deu 28)
6 Blessed shall you be when you come in, and blessed shall you
be when you go out.
7 ‫יהוה‬ will cause your enemies who rise up against you, to be
smitten before you. They will come out against you in one way
but they will flee from you in seven ways.

8 ‫יהוה‬ will send the blessing to be with you in your storehouses
and in all that you put your hand to, and he shall bless you in
the land which ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim is giving you. 9 ‫יהוה‬ will
establish you as his set-apart people, as he swore to you, if
you guard the mitzvot of ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim and walk in his
ways. 10 all the peoples of the earth see that are called by the
name ‫,יהוה‬ and they shall fear you.

11 ‫יהוה‬ shall make you abound in prosperity, in the fruit of your
body and in the fruit of your livestock and in the fruit of your
ground, in the land which ‫יהוה‬ swore to your fathers to give
you. 12 ‫יהוה‬ will open up for you his good treasure, the
heavens, to send rain to your land in its season and to bless all
the work of your hand. And you shall lend to many nations but
you will not borrow.

13 ‫יהוה‬ shall make you the head and not the tail, and you shall
be only at the top, and you will not be at the bottom, if you obey
the mitzvot of ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim, which I command you this
day, to follow them . 14 do not turn aside from any of the words
which I give you today, to the right or to the left, to follow other
gods to serve them.

15 And it shall be, if you do not obey ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim, to guard
to do all his mitzvot and laws which I am giving you today, that
all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you:

16 You shall be cursed in the city and you shall be cursed in the
field.
17 Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.
18 Cursed shall be the fruit of your body and the fruit of your
land, the increase of your cattle and the offspring of your flock.
19 Cursed shall you be when you come in, and cursed shall you
be when you go out.

20 ‫יהוה‬ will send upon you curses, confusion and rebuke in
every one of your endeavors which you undertake, until you
are destroyed and until you quickly perish, because of the evil
of your doings in forsaking me. 21 ‫יהוה‬ will make pestilence
cling to you until he has consumed you from the land, to which
you are going to possess it.

22 ‫יהוה‬ will strike you with consumption and with inflammation
and with burning, with extreme heat, a disease which causes
unquenchable thirst and with the sword, with blight and with
mildew, and they shall pursue you until you perish. 23 The sky
which is over your head shall be bronze, and the earth under
you iron. 24 ‫יהוה‬ will turn the rain of your land into powder and
dust; from the heavens it will come down until you are
destroyed.

25 ‫יהוה‬ will cause you to be defeated before your enemies. You
will go out against them in one way but you will flee from them
in seven ways, and you shall become a thing of horror to all the
reigns on earth. 26 Your carcasses shall be food to all birds of
the sky and to the beasts of the earth, and there will be no one
to frighten them away.

27 ‫יהוה‬ shall smite you with the boils of Mitsrayim and with
tumours and with the scab and with the itch, from which you
cannot be healed. 28 ‫יהוה‬ shall smite you with madness and
with blindness and with bewilderment of heart. 29 You shall
grope at noon, as a blind man gropes in darkness, and you will
not prosper in your ways; but you shall only be oppressed and
plundered continually, with none to save you.

30 You shall betroth a wife, but another man will violate her; you
shall build a house, but you will not dwell in it; you shall plant a
vineyard, but you will not use its fruit. 31 Your ox shall be
slaughtered before your eyes, but you will not eat of it; your
donkey shall be torn away from you, and will not be restored to
you; your sheep shall be given to your enemies, and you will
have none to save you.

32 Your sons and your daughters shall be given to another
people, while your eyes look on and fail for them continually;
but there will be nothing you can do. 33 A people whom you do
not know shall eat up the fruit of your land and all your labours,
and you shall never be anything but oppressed and crushed
continually. 34 You shall be driven mad by the sight of what you
see.

35 ‫יהוה‬ will afflict you on the knees and legs with evil boils, from
which you cannot be healed, from the sole of your foot to the
top of your head. 36 ‫יהוה‬ will bring you and your sovereign,
whom you set over you, to a nation which neither you nor your
fathers have known, and there you shall serve other gods,
wood and stone.

37 You shall become a thing of horror, a proverb, and an object of
discussion, among all the people where ‫יהוה‬ drives you. 38
You shall bring out much seed to the field but you will gather in
little, for the locust will consume it. 39 You shall plant and
cultivate vineyards, but you will neither drink of the wine nor
gather the grapes, for the worm will devour them.

40 You shall have olive trees throughout your border but you will
not anoint yourself with the oil, for your olives will drop off. 41
You shall have sons and daughters but they will not be yours,
for they will go into captivity. 42 The cricket shall possess all
your trees and the fruit of your ground. 43 The sojourner who is
among you shall rise above you higher and higher, but you will
come down lower and lower.

44 He shall lend to you, but you will not lend to him; he shall be
the head, and you will be the tail. 45 So all these curses shall
come on you and pursue you and overtake you until you are
destroyed, because you would not obey ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim by
keeping his mitzvot and his laws which he commanded you. 46
They shall be a sign and a wonder upon you and your
descendants forever.

47 Because you did not serve ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim with joy and with
gladness of heart, for the abundance of all things,

48 therefore, you shall serve your enemies, whom ‫יהוה‬ will send
against you, in hunger, thirst, in nakedness and lacking
everything, and he shall put an iron yoke on your neck until he
has destroyed you. 49 ‫יהוה‬ will bring a nation against you from
afar, from the end of the earth, as the eagle swoops down, a
nation whose language you shall not understand,

50 a brazen nation, which will have no regard for the elderly, nor
show favour to the young. 51 They shall eat the fruit of your
livestock and the fruit of your land until you are destroyed.
They will leave you no grain, new wine or oil, nor the increase
of your cattle or the offspring of your flock until they have
caused you to perish.

52 They shall besiege you in all your gates, until your high and
fenced walls in which you trust come down throughout your
land. And they shall besiege you in all your gates throughout all
your land, which ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim has given you.
53 And during the siege and the distress which your enemy will
inflict upon you, you shall eat the fruit of your body, the flesh of
your sons and daughters, whom ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim has given
you.

54 The most gentle and sensitive man among you will begrudge
his own brother and the wife he loves and the rest of his
children, whom he will leave over, 55 so that he will not give
even one of them any of the flesh of his children which he will
eat, since he has nothing else left, during the siege and the
distress by which your enemy will oppress you in all your
gates.

56 The tender and delicate woman among you, who would not
venture to set the sole of her foot on the ground for
delicateness and tenderness, shall be evil toward the husband
she cherishes and toward her son and daughter,

57 and toward her seed which issues from between her feet and
toward her children whom she bears; for she will eat them
secretly for lack of anything else, during the siege and the
distress by which your enemy will oppress you in your gates.
58 If you are not careful to do all the words of this Torah which
are written in this book, to fear this esteemed and awesome
name, ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim—

59 then ‫יהוה‬ shall bring extraordinary plagues on you and your
descendants, even great and lasting plagues, and grievous
and lasting sicknesses. 60 He shall bring back on you all the
diseases of Mitsrayim of which you were afraid, and they shall
cling to you. 61 Also every sickness and every plague, which is
not written in this Torah scroll, ‫יהוה‬ will bring upon you until
you are destroyed.

62 Then you shall be left few in number, whereas you were as
numerous as the stars of heaven, because you did not
obey‫יהוה‬ your Elohim. 63 It shall come about that as ‫יהוה‬
rejoiced over you to prosper you, and increase you, so ‫יהוה‬
will rejoice over you to make you perish and destroy you; and
you shall be plucked from the land where you are entering to
possess it.

64 Moreover,‫יהוה‬ shall scatter you among all peoples, from one
end of the earth to the other end of the earth; and there you
shall serve other gods, wood and stone, which you or your
fathers have not known. 65 Among those nations you shall find
no rest, and there will be no resting place for the sole of your
foot; but ‫יהוה‬ shall give you a trembling heart, failing of eyes,
and sorrow of being.

66 So your life shall hang in suspense before you; and you shall
be in dread night and day, and shall have no assurance of your
life. 67 In the morning you shall say, “Would that it were
evening!” and at evening you shall say, “Would that it were
morning!”—because of the fear of your heart which you fear,
and for the sight of your eyes which you will see.

68 ‫יהוה‬ shall bring you back to Mitsrayim in ships, by a way
about which I said to you, You will never see it again. And there
you shall offer yourselves for sale to your enemies as male and
female slaves, but there will be no buyer.
69 These are the words of the covenant which ‫יהוה‬ commanded
Moshe to make with the sons of Isra’el in the land of Mo’av,
besides the covenant which he made with them in Horev.

1 And Moshe called all of Isra’el and said to them:
You have seen all that ‫יהוה‬ did before your eyes in the land of
Mitsrayim, to Pharaoh, to all his servants and to all his land;
2 the great trials which your very eyes beheld and those great
signs and wonders. 3 Yet until this day, ‫יהוה‬ has not given you
a heart to know, eyes to see and ears to hear.

4 I led you through the wilderness for forty years during which
time your garments did not wear out from upon you, nor did
your sandals wear out from upon your feet. 5 You neither ate
bread, nor drank new wine or drink, in order that you know that
I am ‫יהוה‬ your Elohim.

Ki Tavo Maftir (Deu 29)
6 And then you arrived at this place. And Sichon the sovereign of
Heshbon and ‘Og the sovereign of Bashan came out us in
battle, and we smote them. 7 And we took their land and we
gave it as an inheritance to the Re’uveni, the Gadi and to the
half tribe of M’nashi.
8 And you shall the words of this covenant, and do them, in order
that you may prosper in that you do.
