Exegesis
The closing merism yā-min wə-sĕ-môl {יָמִ֥ין וּשְׂמֹֽאל | yā-min wə-sĕ-môl} ‘right and left’ expresses totality. This nested structure of relative clauses and polar terms underscores the comprehensive nature of judicial obedience and is rendered in English through parallel clause patterns and precise lexical choices.
In context — Deuteronomy 17:11
According to the instruction which they teach you, and according to the judgment which they declare to you, you shall act. You shall not turn aside from the word that they declare to you, either to the right or to the left.
