God,your in/on/at/with,midst,you & God,your on/over=you(fs) and,destroy,you

Even though Moses is speaking to all the Israelites, you and your are singular in this verse. If the singular forms of these pronouns would not be natural in your language, you could use the plural forms in your translation.

Note 2 topic: translate-names

כִּ֣י

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / explicit

בְּ⁠קִרְבֶּ֑⁠ךָ

in/on/at/with,midst,you

This does not mean that Yahweh has a physical body that lives with the Israelites. Moses means that Yahweh has a special relationship with the Israelites.

Note 8 topic: figures-of-speech / metonymy
