² tn Heb “the Lord your God.” See note on “he” in 12:5.

³ tn In the Hebrew text vv. 10-11 are one long, complex sentence. For stylistic reasons the translation divides this into two sentences.

⁴ tn Heb “ the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

⁵ tn The Hebrew text includes “to possess it.”

⁶ tn Or “from beneath the sky.” The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heaven(s)” or “sky” depending on the context.

⁷ sn This command is fulfilled in 1 Sam 15:1-33.
