Deuteronomy 12:25

12:25 You must not eat it so that it may go well with you and your children after you; you will be doing what is right in the Lord’s sight. ¹ 

Deuteronomy 18:12

18:12 Whoever does these things is abhorrent to the Lord and because of these detestable things ²  the Lord your God is about to drive them out ³  from before you.

[12:25]  ¹ tc Heb “in the eyes of the Lord.” The LXX adds “your God” to create the common formula, “the Lord your God.” The MT is preferred precisely because it does not include the stereotyped formula; thus it more likely preserves the original text.

[18:12]  ² tn Heb “these abhorrent things.” The repetition is emphatic. For stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy, the same term used earlier in the verse has been translated “detestable” here.

[18:12]  ³ tn The translation understands the Hebrew participial form as having an imminent future sense here.
