Deuteronomy 18:12

18:12 Whoever does these things is abhorrent to the Lord and because of these detestable things the Lord your God is about to drive them out from before you.

Deuteronomy 29:15

29:15 but with whoever stands with us here today before the Lord our God as well as those not with us here today.


tn Heb “these abhorrent things.” The repetition is emphatic. For stylistic reasons, to avoid redundancy, the same term used earlier in the verse has been translated “detestable” here.

tn The translation understands the Hebrew participial form as having an imminent future sense here.

tn This is interpreted by some English versions as a reference to generations not yet born (cf. TEV, CEV, NLT).
