NET © Notes |
1 tn The translation uses imperatives in vv. 5-6 followed by the phrase, “If you do all this,” to avoid the long and complex sentence structure of the Hebrew sentence which has a series of conditional clauses in vv. 5-6 followed by a main clause in v. 7. 2 tn Heb “live in this place, in this land.” 3 tn Heb “gave to your fathers [with reference to] from ancient times even unto forever.” |
