Moses is suggesting that this is a possible condition, that Yahweh will only consider the Israelites to be righteous if they obey Yahweh’s commandments. Use a natural form in your language for introducing a situation that could happen. It may be helpful to reorder this sentence so that the conditional statement is clear. Alternate translation: [If we keep doing all these commandments to the face of Yahweh our God as he has commanded us, then it will be righteousness to us]

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of righteousness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [And Yahweh will consider us as righteous]

לִפְנֵ֛י
to=(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before
Here, to the face of represents being in front of or in the presence of Yahweh. See the Introduction to Deuteronomy for a discussion of this phrase. See how you translated “to the face of” in [1:42](../01/42.md). Alternate translation: [before] or [in the presence of]
OET (OET-LV) And_righteousness it_will_belong to/for_ourselves if/because we_will_take_care for_doing DOM all_of the_command (the)_this to_(the)_face_of/in_front_of/before YHWH god_of_our just_as he_commanded_us.

Note: The OET-RV is still only a first draft, and so far only a few words have been (mostly automatically) matched to the Hebrew or Greek words that they’re translated from.
