Then ¹  the first son ²  she bears will continue the name of the dead brother, thus preventing his name from being blotted out of Israel.

For I will proclaim the name ¹  of the Lord; you must acknowledge the greatness of our God.

You must not make use of the name of the Lord your God for worthless purposes, ¹  for the Lord will not exonerate anyone who abuses his name that way. ² 

You must revere the Lord your God, serve him, and take oaths using only his name.

“But if any prophet presumes to speak anything in my name that I have not authorized ¹  him to speak, or speaks in the name of other gods, that prophet must die.

Revere the Lord your God, serve him, be loyal to him and take oaths only in his name.

When he ¹  blesses you, if the ²  place where he chooses to locate his name is distant,

I will personally hold responsible ¹  anyone who then pays no attention to the words that prophet ²  speaks in my name.

and serves in the name of the Lord his God like his fellow Levites who stand there before the Lord.

His family name will be referred to ¹  in Israel as “the family ²  of the one whose sandal was removed.” ³

For the Lord your God has chosen them and their sons from all your tribes to stand ¹  and serve in his name ²  permanently.

He will hand over their kings to you and you will erase their very names from memory. ¹  Nobody will be able to resist you until you destroy them.

“If you refuse to obey ¹  all the words of this law, the things written in this scroll, and refuse to fear this glorious and awesome name, the Lord your God,

but you must sacrifice it ¹  in the evening in ²  the place where he ³  chooses to locate his name, at sunset, the time of day you came out of Egypt.

whenever a prophet speaks in my ¹  name and the prediction ²  is not fulfilled, ³  then I have ⁴  not spoken it; ⁵  the prophet has presumed to speak it, so you need not fear him.”

Then the Levitical priests ¹  will approach (for the Lord your God has chosen them to serve him and to pronounce blessings in his name, ²  and to decide ³  every judicial verdict ⁴ )
