12:5But you must seek only the place he7 chooses from all your tribes to establish his name as his place of residence,8 and you must go there.
Footnotes
- 7 Heb “the Lord your God.” The pronoun has been used in the translation for stylistic reasons to avoid redundancy.
- 8 Some scholars, on the basis of v. 11, emend the reading שִׁכְנוֹ (shikhno, “his residence”) to the infinitive construct לְשָׁכֵן (léshakhen, “to make [his name] to dwell”), perhaps with the 3rd person masculine singular sf לְשַׁכְּנוֹ (léshakéno, “to cause it to dwell”). Though the presupposed noun שֵׁכֶן (shekhen) is nowhere else attested, the parallel here with שַׁמָּה (shammah, “there”) favors retaining the as it stands.
