Ulangan 4:40
Konteks4:40 Keep his statutes and commandments that I am setting forth 1 today so that it may go well with you and your descendants and that you may enjoy longevity in the land that the Lord your God is about to give you as a permanent possession.
Ulangan 7:9
Konteks7:9 So realize that the Lord your God is the true God, 2 the faithful God who keeps covenant faithfully 3 with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations,
[4:40] 1 tn Heb “commanding” (so NRSV).
[7:9] 2 tn Heb “the God.” The article here expresses uniqueness; cf. TEV “is the only God”; NLT “is indeed God.”
