1 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the Lord) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

2 tn Heb “according to the former writing.” See note on the phrase “the same words” in v. 2.

3 tn Heb “ten words.” The “Ten Commandments” are known in Hebrew as the “Ten Words,” which in Greek became the “Decalogue.”

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

5 tn Heb “the Lord.” See note on “he” earlier in this verse.

6 tn Heb “or dreamer of dreams.” See note on this expression in v. 1.

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

8 tn Heb “all your heart and soul” (so NRSV, CEV, NLT); or “heart and being” (NCV “your whole being”). See note on the word “being” in Deut 6:5.

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

10 sn Beginning with 29:1, the verse numbers through 29:29 in the English Bible differ from the verse numbers in the Hebrew text (BHS), with 29:1 ET = 28:69 HT, 29:2 ET = 29:1 HT, 29:3 ET = 29:2 HT, etc., through 29:29 ET = 29:28 HT. With 30:1 the verse numbers in the ET and HT are again the same.

11 sn Horeb is another name for Mount Sinai (which some English versions substitute here for clarity, cf. NCV, TEV, CEV, NLT).

12 tn Heb “he”; the referent (the subject of the warning in v. 18) has been specified in the translation for clarity.

13 tn Heb “in his heart.”

14 tn Or “invokes a blessing on himself.” A formalized word of blessing is in view, the content of which appears later in the verse.

15 tn Heb “heart.”

16 tn Heb “thus destroying.” For stylistic reasons the translation begins a new sentence here.

17 tn Heb “the watered with the parched.” The word “ground” is implied. The exact meaning of the phrase is uncertain although it appears to be figurative. This appears to be a proverbial observation employing a figure of speech (a merism) suggesting totality. That is, the Israelite who violates the letter and even spirit of the covenant will harm not only himself but everything he touches – “the watered and the parched.” Cf. CEV “you will cause the rest of Israel to be punished along with you.”

18 tn Heb “sons” (so NASB); KJV, ASV, NIV, NRSV “children.”
