Exegesis
The negative imperative lo tira {לֹא תִירָא | lō’ ṯî-rā’} ‘must not fear’ issues a prohibition, followed by the causal ki {כִּי | kî} ‘for,’ introducing the reason based on the compound divine name YHWH Eloheikha {יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ | Yə-hō-wāh ʼĕ-lō-hê-kā} ‘LORD your God,’ reinforced by immakh {עִמָּךְ | ’im-mā-kh} ‘with you.’
In context — Deuteronomy 20:1
When you go out to fight against your enemies and you see horses and chariots and a force larger than you, you must not fear them, for the LORD your God is with you—He is the One who brought you up from the land of Egypt.
