Context
25:17 No one is to oppress his fellow citizen, 1  but you must fear your God, because I am the Lord your God. 25:18 You must obey my statutes and my regulations; you must be sure to keep them 2  so that you may live securely in the land. 3 

25:19 “‘The land will give its fruit and you may eat until you are satisfied, 4  and you may live securely in the land.

[25:17]  1 tn Heb “And you shall not oppress a man his fellow citizen.”

[25:18]  2 tn Heb “And you shall keep and do them.” This appears to be a kind of verbal hendiadys, where the first verb is a modifier of the action of the second verb (see GKC 386 §120.d, although שָׁמַר [shamar, “to keep”] is not cited there; cf. Lev 20:8, etc.).

[25:18]  3 tn Heb “and you shall dwell on the land to security.”

[25:19]  3 tn Heb “eat to satisfaction”; KJV, ASV “ye shall eat your fill.”
