[6:1]  ¹ tn Heb “commandment.” The word מִצְוָה (mitsvah) again is in the singular, serving as a comprehensive term for the whole stipulation section of the book. See note on the word “commandments” in 5:31.

[6:1]  ² tn Heb “where you are going over to possess it” (so NASB); NRSV “that you are about to cross into and occupy.”

[15:5]  ³ tn Heb “if listening you listen to the voice of.” The infinitive absolute is used for emphasis, which the translation indicates with “carefully.” The idiom “listen to the voice” means “obey.”

[15:5]  ⁴ tn Heb “the Lord your God.” See note on “he” in 15:4.

[15:5]  ⁵ tn Heb “by being careful to do.”

[15:5]  ⁶ tn Heb “commanding” (so NASB); NAB “which I enjoin you today.”

[27:10]  ⁷ tn Heb “listen to the voice of the Lord your God.” Here “listen” (NAB “hearken”) means “obey” (cf. KJV, ASV, NASB). The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.

[28:9]  ⁸ tn Heb “the commandments of the Lord your God.” See note on “he” in the previous verse.

[28:9]  ⁹ tn Heb “and walk in his ways” (so NAB, NASB, NIV, NRSV, NLT).
