Deuteronomy 31:29

31:29 For I know that after I die you will totally 6  corrupt yourselves and turn away from the path I have commanded you to walk. Disaster will confront you in the days to come because you will act wickedly 7  before the Lord, inciting him to anger because of your actions.” 8 

1 tn Heb “commanding” (so NASB, NRSV).

2 tc The LXX and Smr add “and good” to bring the phrase in line with a familiar cliché (cf. Deut 6:18; Josh 9:25; 2 Kgs 10:3; 2 Chr 14:1; etc.). This is an unnecessary and improper attempt to force a text into a preconceived mold.

3 tn Heb “in the eyes of the Lord your God.” See note on the word “him” in v. 3.

1 tn Heb “gates.”

2 tn Heb “does the evil in the eyes of the Lord your God.”

1 tn The Hebrew text uses the infinitive absolute for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “totally.”

2 tn Heb “do the evil.”

3 tn Heb “the work of your hands.”
