# General Information:
Moses speaks to the Israelites as if they were one man, so the words "you" and "your" here are singular. (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-you]])
# to the voice of Yahweh your God
Here the metonym "voice of Yahweh" refers to what he says. Alternate translation: "to what Yahweh your God says" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metonymy]])
# so as to keep
"and obey"
# set you above
Moses speaks of being important or being great as if it were being physically higher, as on a higher hill. Alternate translation: "make you more important than" or "make you greater than" (See: [[rc://en/ta/man/translate/figs-metaphor]])
