Deuteronomy 8:20

8:20 Just like the nations the Lord is about to destroy from your sight, so he will do to you ¹  because you would not obey him. ² 

Deuteronomy 9:25

Moses’ Plea on Behalf of the Lord’s Reputation

9:25 I lay flat on the ground before the Lord for forty days and nights, ³  for he ⁴  had said he would destroy you.

[8:20]  ¹ tn Heb “so you will perish.”

[8:20]  ² tn Heb “listen to the voice of the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[9:25]  ³ tn The Hebrew text includes “when I prostrated myself.” Since this is redundant, it has been left untranslated.

[9:25]  ⁴ tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” in 9:3.
