Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context.

Here, so that marks what follows as the goal or purpose of what came before. Use a connector in your language that makes it clear that this is the purpose.

fear & God,your & commanding,you you(ms) and,children,your and,children children's,your & life,your & days,you
Even though Moses is speaking to all the Israelites, you and your are singular from this verse to verse 13. See chapter introduction for more information on translating you.

you(ms) and,children,your and,children children's,your all days_of life,your
In this verse, the words son and life are singular in form, but refer to all Israelites and their descendants as a group. If it would be helpful in your language, you could say this plainly. Alternate translation: “all of you and your offspring, all the days of your lives”
Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor
יַאֲרִכֻ֥ן יָמֶֽיךָ
long, days,you
The implication is that if the Israelites obey Yahweh, they will live long lives. Yahweh will prolong the days of their lives. You could include this information if it would be helpful for your readers. See how you translated this concept in 4:26. Alternate translation: “you might have long lives”
Note 5 topic: figures-of-speech / activepassive
יַאֲרִכֻ֥ן יָמֶֽיךָ
long, days,you
If your language does not use this passive form, you could express the idea in active form or in another way that is natural in your language. Alternate translation: “you will prolong your days”
