Deuteronomy 18:5

Context
18:5 For the Lord your God has chosen them and their sons from all your tribes to stand 1  and serve in his name 2  permanently.

1 tc Smr and some Greek texts add “before the Lord your God” to bring the language into line with a formula found elsewhere (Deut 10:8; 2 Chr 29:11). This reading is not likely to be original, however.

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