Exegesis
The compound subject YHWH Eloheicha {יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ | Yə-hō-wāh ʾĕ-lō-hê-ḵā} ‘the LORD your God’ emphasizes covenantal presence.
In context — Deuteronomy 23:14
For the LORD your God moves about in the midst of your camp to deliver you and to give your enemies before you. Therefore, your camp must be holy , so that He will not see among you any nakedness of a thing and turn away from after you.
