BrLXXΚαὶ ἔσται ἐὰν ἀκούσῃ τὰ ῥήματα τῆς ἀρᾶς ταύτης, καὶ ἐπιφημίσηται ἐν τῇ καρδίᾳ αὐτοῦ, λέγων, ὅσιά μοι γένοιτο, ὅτι ἐν τῇ ἀποπλανήσει τῆς καρδίας μου πορεύσομαι, ἵνα μὴ συναπολέσῃ ὁ ἁμαρτωλὸς τὸν ἀναμάρτητον·

BrTrAnd it shall be if one shall hear the words of this curse, and shall flatter himself in his heart, saying, [fn]Let good happen to me, for I will walk in the error of my heart, lest the sinner destroy the guiltless with him:


29:18 Lit. May holy things happen to me. See the use of ὅσια in Is. 55. 3; Acts 13. 34.

ULTlest there is among you a man or woman or clan or tribe whose heart is turning away today from Yahweh our God to go serve the gods of those nations, lest there is among you a root bearing gall and wormwood.

USTSo be sure that no man or woman or family or tribe that is here today turns away from Yahweh our God, to worship any of the gods of those people groups. If you do that, you will bring disaster on yourselves.

BSB  § Make sure there is no man or woman, clan or tribe among you today whose heart turns away from the LORD our God to go and worship the gods of those nations. Make sure there is no root among you that bears such poisonous and bitter fruit,[fn]

FBVYou need to make sure today that there's no man or woman, family or tribe of yours who wants to turn from the Lord our God and go and worship the gods of these nations. Make sure there is nothing like that among you that would produce such poison and bitterness.

T4TSo be sure that no man or woman or family or tribe that is here today turns away from Yahweh our God, to worship/serve the gods of those nations. Doing that would be like a root of a plant that would grow among you and bear poisonous and bitter fruit [MET].

TSNTyndale Study Notes:

29:18 This metaphor describes idolatry (the root), which, if cultivated, would result in idol worship (the fruit).


UTNuW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / synecdoche

(Occurrence 0) whose heart is turning away today from Yahweh our God

(Some words not found in UHB: and=it_was in/on/at/with,hears,he DOM words the,oath the,this and,bless in/on/at/with,heart,his to=say safe will_belong to/for=me that/for/because/then/when in/on/at/with,stubbornness heart,my go thus bringing_disaster the,well-watered DOM the,dry )

Here “heart” refers to the whole person, and “turning away” means to stop obeying. Alternate translation: “who no longer obeys Yahweh our God”

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

(Occurrence 0) any root that produces gall and wormwood

(Some words not found in UHB: and=it_was in/on/at/with,hears,he DOM words the,oath the,this and,bless in/on/at/with,heart,his to=say safe will_belong to/for=me that/for/because/then/when in/on/at/with,stubbornness heart,my go thus bringing_disaster the,well-watered DOM the,dry )

Moses speaks of someone who secretly worships another God as if he were a root, and the evil deeds he does to serve that god, and which he encourages others to do, as a bitter plant that poisons people. Alternate translation: “any person who worships idols and causes others to disobey Yahweh”
