and,careful very (Some words not found in UHB: and,careful very for,life,your_all's to,love DOM YHWH God,your_all's )
Joshua is using a common expression to mean being very careful about something. If it would be helpful in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: “And you shall be very careful to love Yahweh your God”
23:11 be very careful to love: Love is a function of will and intention. Emotion and attraction are the results, not the essence, of love. Because love is (or is not) willed, love can be commanded but not coerced.
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.
