Ulangan 14:28

14:28 At the end of every three years you must bring all the tithe of your produce, in that very year, and you must store it up in your villages.

Ulangan 16:20

16:20 You must pursue justice alone ²  so that you may live and inherit the land the Lord your God is giving you.

Ulangan 19:13

19:13 You must not pity him, but purge out the blood of the innocent ³  from Israel, so that it may go well with you.

Ulangan 33:18

Blessing on Zebulun and Issachar

33:18 Of Zebulun he said:

Rejoice, Zebulun, when you go outside,

and Issachar, when you are in your tents.

Ulangan 33:28

33:28 Israel lives in safety,

the fountain of Jacob is quite secure, ⁴ 

in a land of grain and new wine;

indeed, its heavens ⁵  rain down dew. ⁶ 

[2:26]  ¹ sn Kedemoth. This is probably Aleiyan, about 8 mi (13 km) north of the Arnon and between Dibon and Mattanah.

[16:20]  ² tn Heb “justice, justice.” The repetition is emphatic; one might translate as “pure justice” or “unadulterated justice” (cf. NLT “true justice”).

[19:13]  ³ sn Purge out the blood of the innocent. Because of the corporate nature of Israel’s community life, the whole community shared in the guilt of unavenged murder unless and until vengeance occurred. Only this would restore spiritual and moral equilibrium (Num 35:33).

[33:28]  ⁴ tn Heb “all alone.” The idea is that such vital resources as water will some day no longer need protection because God will provide security.

[33:28]  ⁵ tn Or “skies.” The Hebrew term שָׁמַיִם (shamayim) may be translated “heaven(s)” or “sky” depending on the context.

[33:28]  ⁶ tn Or perhaps “drizzle, showers.” See note at Deut 32:2.
