Ulangan 1:41

Unsuccessful Conquest of Canaan

1:41 Then you responded to me and admitted, “We have sinned against the Lord. We will now go up and fight as the Lord our God has told us to do.” So you each put on your battle gear and prepared to go up to the hill country.

Ulangan 7:26

7:26 You must not bring any abhorrent thing into your house and thereby become an object of divine wrath ⁸  along with it. ⁹  You must absolutely detest ¹⁰  and abhor it, ¹¹  for it is an object of divine wrath.

Ulangan 9:4

9:4 Do not think to yourself after the Lord your God has driven them out before you, “Because of my own righteousness the Lord has brought me here to possess this land.” It is because of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord is driving them out ahead of you.

Ulangan 9:24

9:24 You have been rebelling against him ¹²  from the very first day I knew you!

Ulangan 10:4

10:4 The Lord ¹³  then wrote on the tablets the same words, ¹⁴  the ten commandments, ¹⁵  which he ¹⁶  had spoken to you at the mountain from the middle of the fire at the time of that assembly, and he ¹⁷  gave them to me.

Ulangan 13:16

Ulangan 14:26

14:26 Then you may spend the money however you wish for cattle, sheep, wine, beer, or whatever you desire. You and your household may eat there in the presence of the Lord your God and enjoy it.

Ulangan 15:23

15:23 However, you must not eat its blood; you must pour it out on the ground like water.

Ulangan 18:17

18:17 The Lord then said to me, “What they have said is good.

Ulangan 22:10

22:10 You must not plow with an ox and a donkey harnessed together.

Ulangan 25:14

25:14 You must not have in your house different measuring containers, ²⁵  a large and a small one.

Ulangan 27:11

27:11 Moreover, Moses commanded the people that day:

Ulangan 28:6

28:6 You will be blessed when you come in and blessed when you go out. ²⁶ 

Ulangan 28:12-13

28:12 The Lord will open for you his good treasure house, the heavens, to give you rain for the land in its season and to bless all you do; ²⁷  you will lend to many nations but you will not borrow from any. 28:13 The Lord will make you the head and not the tail, and you will always end up at the top and not at the bottom, if you obey his ²⁸  commandments which I am urging ²⁹  you today to be careful to do.

Ulangan 28:19

28:19 You will be cursed when you come in and cursed when you go out. ³⁰ 

Ulangan 28:34

28:34 You will go insane from seeing all this.

Ulangan 28:42

28:42 Whirring locusts ³²  will take over every tree and all the produce of your soil.

Ulangan 28:63-64

28:63 This is what will happen: Just as the Lord delighted to do good for you and make you numerous, he ³³  will take delight in destroying and decimating you. You will be uprooted from the land you are about to possess. 28:64 The Lord will scatter you among all nations, from one end of the earth to the other. There you will worship other gods that neither you nor your ancestors have known, gods of wood and stone.

Ulangan 32:12

32:12 The Lord alone was guiding him, ³⁴ 

no foreign god was with him.

[3:9]  ¹ sn Sidonians were Phoenician inhabitants of the city of Sidon (now in Lebanon), about 47 mi (75 km) north of Mount Carmel.

[3:9]  ² sn Sirion. This name is attested in the Ugaritic texts as sryn. See UT 495.

[3:9]  ³ sn Senir. Probably this was actually one of the peaks of Hermon and not the main mountain (Song of Songs 4:8; 1 Chr 5:23). It is mentioned in a royal inscription of Shalmaneser III of Assyria (saniru; see ANET 280).

[3:21]  ⁴ tn Heb “the Lord.” The translation uses the pronoun (“he”) for stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy.

[3:21]  ⁵ tn Heb “which you are crossing over there.”

[6:9]  ⁶ sn The Hebrew term מְזוּזֹת (mÿzuzot) refers both to the door frames and to small cases attached on them containing scripture texts (always Deut 6:4-9 and 11:13-21; and sometimes the decalogue; Exod 13:1-10, 11-16; and Num 10:35-36). See J. H. Tigay, Deuteronomy (JPSTC), 443-44.

[6:14]  ⁷ tn Heb “from the gods.” The demonstrative pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[7:26]  ⁸ tn Heb “come under the ban” (so NASB); NRSV “be set apart for destruction.” The same phrase occurs again at the end of this verse.

[7:26]  sn The Hebrew word translated an object of divine wrath (חֵרֶם, kherem) refers to persons or things placed under God’s judgment, usually to the extent of their complete destruction. See note on the phrase “divine judgment” in Deut 2:34.

[7:26]  ⁹ tn Or “like it is.”

[7:26]  ¹⁰ tn This Hebrew verb (שָׁקַץ, shaqats) is essentially synonymous with the next verb (תָעַב, ta’av; cf. תּוֹעֵבָה, to’evah; see note on the word “abhorrent” in v. 25), though its field of meaning is more limited to cultic abomination (cf. Lev 11:11, 13; Ps 22:25).

[7:26]  ¹¹ tn Heb “detesting you must detest and abhorring you must abhor.” Both verbs are preceded by a cognate infinitive absolute indicating emphasis.

[9:24]  ¹² tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” in 9:3.

[10:4]  ¹³ tn Heb “he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

[10:4]  ¹⁴ tn Heb “according to the former writing.” See note on the phrase “the same words” in v. 2.

[10:4]  ¹⁵ tn Heb “ten words.” The “Ten Commandments” are known in Hebrew as the “Ten Words,” which in Greek became the “Decalogue.”

[10:4]  ¹⁶ tn Heb “the Lord.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[10:4]  ¹⁷ tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” earlier in this verse.

[13:16]  ¹⁸ tn Heb “street.”

[13:16]  ¹⁹ tn Heb “mound”; NAB “a heap of ruins.” The Hebrew word תֵּל (tel) refers to this day to a ruin represented especially by a built-up mound of dirt or debris (cf. Tel Aviv, “mound of grain”).

[14:3]  ²⁰ tn The Hebrew word תּוֹעֵבָה (to’evah, “forbidden; abhorrent”) describes anything detestable to the Lord because of its innate evil or inconsistency with his own nature and character. See note on the word “abhorrent” in Deut 7:25. Cf. KJV “abominable”; NIV “detestable”; NRSV “abhorrent.”

[22:30]  ²¹ sn Beginning with 22:30, the verse numbers through 23:25 in the English Bible differ from the verse numbers in the Hebrew text (BHS), with 22:30 ET = 23:1 HT, 23:1 ET = 23:2 HT, 23:2 ET = 23:3 HT, etc., through 23:25 ET = 23:26 HT. With 24:1 the verse numbers in the ET and HT are again the same.

[22:30]  ²² tn Heb “take.” In context this refers to marriage, as in the older English expression “take a wife.”

[22:30]  ²³ sn This presupposes either the death of the father or their divorce since it would be impossible for one to marry his stepmother while his father was still married to her.

[22:30]  ²⁴ tn Heb “uncover his father’s skirt” (so ASV, NASB). This appears to be a circumlocution for describing the dishonor that would come to a father by having his own son share his wife’s sexuality (cf. NAB, NIV “dishonor his father’s bed”).

[25:14]  ²⁵ tn Heb “an ephah and an ephah.” An ephah refers to a unit of dry measure roughly equivalent to five U.S. gallons (just under 20 liters). On the repetition of the term to indicate diversity, see IBHS 116 §7.2.3c.

[28:6]  ²⁶ sn Come in…go out. To “come in” and “go out” is a figure of speech (merism) indicating all of life and its activities.

[28:12]  ²⁷ tn Heb “all the work of your hands.”

[28:13]  ²⁸ tn Heb “the Lord your God’s.” See note on “he” in 28:8.

[28:13]  ²⁹ tn Heb “commanding” (so NRSV); NASB “which I charge you today.”

[28:19]  ³⁰ sn See note on the similar expression in v. 6.

[28:36]  ³¹ tc The LXX reads the plural “kings.”

[28:42]  ³² tn The Hebrew term denotes some sort of buzzing or whirring insect; some have understood this to be a type of locust (KJV, NIV, CEV), but other insects have also been suggested: “buzzing insects” (NAB); “the cricket” (NASB); “the cicada” (NRSV).

[28:63]  ³³ tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” in 28:8.

[32:12]  ³⁴ tn The distinctive form of the suffix on this verb form indicates that the verb is an imperfect, not a preterite. As such it draws attention to God’s continuing guidance during the period in view.

[34:4]  ³⁵ tn Heb “seed” (so KJV, ASV).

[34:4]  ³⁶ tn The Hebrew text includes “with your eyes,” but this is redundant in English and is left untranslated.
