¹ tn Heb “keep” (so KJV, NAB, NIV, NRSV).

² tn Heb “testings” (so NAB), a reference to the plagues. See note at 4:34.

³ tn Heb “the strong hand and outstretched arm.” See 4:34.

⁴ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

⁵ tn Heb “the Lord’s.” See note on the word “his” in v. 5.

⁶ tn Heb “the word,” but a predictive word is in view here. Cf. NAB “his oracle.”

⁷ tn Heb “does not happen or come to pass.”

⁸ tn Heb “the Lord has.” See note on the word “his” in v. 5.

⁹ tn Heb “that is the word which the Lord has not spoken.”

¹⁰ tn Heb “If you are not careful to do.”

¹¹ tn The phrase “this law” is not in the Hebrew text, but English style requires an object for the verb here. Other translations also supply the object which is otherwise implicit (cf. NIV “who do not know this law”; TEV “who have never heard the Law of the Lord your God”).
