4:9 Again, however, pay very careful attention, 1 lest you forget the things you have seen and disregard them for the rest of your life; instead teach them to your children and grandchildren.
7:12 If you obey these ordinances and are careful to do them, the Lord your God will faithfully keep covenant with you 2 as he promised 3 your ancestors.
1 tn Heb “watch yourself and watch your soul carefully.”
2 tn Heb “will keep with you the covenant and loyalty.” On the construction used here, see v. 9.
3 tn Heb “which he swore on oath.” The relative pronoun modifies “covenant,” so one could translate “will keep faithfully the covenant (or promise) he made on oath to your ancestors.”
