Exegesis
The preposition im {עִ֖ם | ʿim} ‘with’ links the subject to the divine name YHWH {יְהוָה | Yə-hō-wāh}, and the pronominal suffix in Eloheikha {אֱלֹהֶֽיךָ | ʾĕ-lō-hê-kā} ‘your God’ personalizes the covenant relationship. English word order shifts the verb before the adjective for clarity, while retaining emphasis on character by preserving the fronted adjective.
