Deuteronomy 28:14

28:14 But you must not turn away from all the commandments I am giving ²  you today, to either the right or left, nor pursue other gods and worship ³  them.

Deuteronomy 17:11

[2:27]  ¹ tn Heb “in the way in the way” (בַּדֶּרֶךְ בַּדֶּרֶךְ, baderekh baderekh). The repetition lays great stress on the idea of resolute determination to stick to the path. IBHS 116 §7.2.3c.

[28:14]  ² tn Heb “from all the words which I am commanding.”

[28:14]  ³ tn Heb “in order to serve.”

[17:20]  ³ tc Heb “upon his kingship.” Smr supplies כִּסֵא (kise’, “throne”) so as to read “upon the throne of his kingship.” This overliteralizes what is a clearly understood figure of speech.
