Note 1 topic: grammar-connect-logic-goal

לְמַ֗עַן אֲשֶׁ֨ר לֹֽא־יְלַמְּד֤וּ אֶתְ⁠כֶם֙ לַ⁠עֲשׂ֔וֹת כְּ⁠כֹל֙ תּֽוֹעֲבֹתָ֔⁠ם

in_order (Some words not found in UHB: in_order which/who not teach ,you(pl) for=doing according,to_all_of abominations_of,their which/who they_had_acquired for,gods_of,their and,you(pl)_will_sin to/for=YHWH God_of,your(pl) )

Here, so that marks they do not teach you to do like any of their abominations as the goal or purpose of the command to destroy these nations in the previous verse. Moses is explaining that the Israelites must destroy these nations to prevent them from teaching the Israelites to worship false gods. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that this is the purpose. Alternate translation: [in order to prevent them from teaching you to do the detestable things] or [to make sure they cannot teach you to imitate their disgusting practices]

וַ⁠חֲטָאתֶ֖ם לַ⁠יהוָ֥ה אֱלֹהֵי⁠כֶֽם

and,you(pl)_will_sin to/for=YHWH God_of,your(pl)

The word translated as for indicates that what follows is a reason for what came before. Moses explains that the reason the Israelites should not learn the practices of these nations is that doing so would be sinning against Yahweh. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that what follows is a reason for what came before. Alternate translation: [because doing these things would be sinning against Yahweh your God] or [which would cause you to sin against Yahweh your God]
