# General Information: Moses continues to tell the people of Israel Yahweh's words as if the Israelites are one person. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-you]]) # You will consume all the peoples "I command you to completely destroy all the people groups" # your eye will not pity them This is a command. Moses speaks as if what the eye sees were the eye itself. Alternate translation: "do not allow what you see to cause you to pity them" or "do not pity them because you see that what you are doing is hurting them" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metonymy]]) # You will not worship "never worship" # that will be a trap for you If the people worship other gods, they will be like an animal caught in a hunter's trap, and they will be unable to escape. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-metaphor]])
