This OET (very) Literal Version was designed to be used as a view into the original language words, so as to be an aid to understanding the source text for the Readers’ Version, so you won’t get the best understanding from this single viewpoint. This is still an early look into the drafted text of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check the text in advance before using in public.

3 Your(pl)_eyes are_the_ones_which_saw DOM that_which he_did YHWH at_Baˊal- pəˊōr if/because_that every_of the_man who he_walked after Baˊal Pəˊōr he_destroyed_him YHWH god_of_your from_midst_of_your.
4 And_you(pl) who_were_clinging on_YHWH god_of_your(pl) are_alive of_you_of_all the_day.
5 See I_have_taught you(pl) regulations and_judgements just_as he_commanded_me YHWH god_of_my for_doing thus in_the_midst_of the_earth/land where you(pl) are_about_to_go to_(to) to_take_possession_of_it.
6 And_you(pl)_will_take_care and_you(pl)_will_observe_them if/because it be_your_wisdom_of_will and_understanding_of_your(pl) to_the_eyes_of the_peoples which they_will_hear DOM all_of the_regulations the_these and_they_will_say certainly is_a_people wise and_understanding the_nation (the)_great (the)_this.

8 And_who is_a_nation great which to_him/it regulations and_judgements righteous like_all_of the_law (the)_this which I am_setting before_you(pl) the_day.
9 Only take_heed to/for_yourself(m) and_guard self_of_your exceedingly lest you_should_forget DOM the_things which they_have_seen eyes_of_your_own and_lest they_should_depart from_heart_of_your(pl) all_of the_days_of your(pl)_life_of_your and_you_will_make_them_known to_children_of_your and_to_the_children_of your(pl)_children_of_your.
10 the_day when you_stood to_(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before YHWH god_of_your at_Ḩorēⱱ when_said YHWH to_me assemble to_me DOM the_people so_that_I_may_make_them_hear DOM words/messages_of_my that they_will_learn to_fear DOM_me all_of the_days which they will_be_alive on the_soil and_DOM children_of_their they_will_teach.
11 And_you(pl)_drew_near and_you(pl)_stood under the_mountain and_the_mountain was_burning with_fire to the_heart_of the_heavens darkness cloud and_thick_darkness.
12 And_ YHWH _he/it_spoke to_you(pl) from_the_middle_of the_fire a_sound_of words/messages you(pl) were_hearing and_a_form not_you(pl) were_seeing except a_voice.

14 And_me YHWH he_commanded at_time the_that to_teach you(pl) regulations and_judgements you_to_observe DOM_them on_the_earth where you(pl) are_about_to_pass_over to_(to) to_take_possession_of_it.
15 And_you(pl)_will_take_heed exceedingly to_selves_of_your(pl) if/because not you(pl)_saw any_of form in/on_day when_he_spoke YHWH to_you(pl) at_Ḩorēⱱ from_the_middle_of the_fire.
16 Lest you(pl)_should_act_corruptly and_you(pl)_will_make to/for_you(pl) an_idol a_form_of any_of image a_likeness_of a_male or a_female.
17 A_likeness_of any_of animal which on_the_earth a_likeness_of any_of bird_of wing which it_flies in_heavens.
18 A_likeness_of any_of creeping_thing on_ground a_likeness_of any_of fish which is_in_waters from_under to_earth.
19 And_lest you_should_lift_up eyes_of_your to_the_heavens and_you_will_see DOM the_sun and_DOM the_moon and_DOM the_stars all_of the_soldier/messenger_of the_heavens and_you_will_be_drawn_aside and_you_will_bow_down to/for_them and_you_will_serve_them which he_has_assigned YHWH god_of_your DOM_them to_all/each/any/every the_peoples under all_of the_heavens.
20 And_you(pl) YHWH he_took and_he_brought_out you(pl) from_the_furnace_of (the)_iron from_Miʦrayim/(Egypt) to_be to_him/it (into)_a_people_of inheritance as_day (the)_this.
