Deuteronomy 6:15

Context
6:15 for the Lord your God, who is present among you, is a jealous God and his anger will erupt against you and remove you from the land. 1 

Deuteronomy 23:5

Context
23:5 But the Lord your God refused to listen to Balaam and changed 2  the curse to a blessing, for the Lord your God loves 3  you.

1 tn Heb “lest the anger of the Lord your God be kindled against you and destroy you from upon the surface of the ground.” Cf. KJV, ASV “from off the face of the earth.”

2 tn Heb “the Lord your God changed.” The phrase “the Lord your God” has not been included in the translation here for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy. Moreover, use of the pronoun “he” could create confusion regarding the referent (the Lord or Balaam).

3 tn The verb אָהַב (’ahav, “love”) here and commonly elsewhere in the Book of Deuteronomy speaks of God’s elective grace toward Israel. See note on the word “loved” in Deut 4:37.
