¹ tn This verb could also be subordinated to the preceding: “that you be not smitten.”

² tn The relative clause is literally, “which I am causing you to enter there.” The final adverb is resumptive, and must be joined with the relative pronoun.

³ tn The verse has a temporal clause that actually continues or supplements the temporal clause of the preceding verse. It is made up of the temporal indicator, the infinitive construct with the preposition, and the suffixed subjective genitive: “and it shall be when you eat.” Here it is translated simply “and eat” since the temporal element was introduced in the last verse.

⁴ tn This is the תְּרוּמָה (tÿrumah), the “raised offering” or “heave offering” (cf. KJV, ASV). It may simply be called a “contribution” (so NAB). The verb of the sentence is from the same root: “you shall lift up/raise up.” It was to be an offering separated from the rest and raised up to the Lord in the sight of all. It was designed to remind the Israelites that the produce and the land belonged to God.

⁵ tn The verb is the Hiphil perfect of נוּחַ (nuakh, “to rest”), and so “to set at rest, lay, place, put.” The form with the vav (ו) consecutive continues the instruction of the previous verse.

⁶ tn The Hebrew text simply reads “the covenant” or “the testimony.”

⁷ tn Heb “between the evenings” meaning between dusk and dark.

⁸ tn Heb “said to them.”

⁹ tn Heb “that which goes out/has gone out of your mouth.”

¹⁰ tn Heb “a statute of judgment” (so KJV).
