# As your god lives, Dan
# As your god lives, Dan ... As the way to Beersheba exists
This is a way of making a solemn oath. The people declare that they believe the god of Dan is certainly alive to emphasize that they will certainly do what they promise to do.
# As the way to Beersheba exists
This is probably a reference to the roads that pilgrims would take to Beersheba in order to worship idols there. Again, this is a way of making a solemn oath. They state that the way to Beersheba certainly exists in order to emphasize that they will certainly do what they promise to do.
The people would declare that it is certain that Dan's god is alive or that the road to Beersheba exists to emphasize that they would certainly do what they promised to do.
# they will fall
This is an idiom. Alternate translation: "they will die" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/jit/figs-idiom]])
