UTN uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / you

General Information:

Moses speaks to the Israelites as if they were one man, so the words “you” and “your” here are singular.

(Some words not found in UHB: see I_give to=your=face the=day DOM the=life and=DOM the,prosperity and=DOM the,death and=DOM the,adversity )

Putting something where another person can see it is a metaphor for telling someone about something. Alternate translation: “I have told you about”
