Exegesis
The particle ʾēt {אֵת | ʾēt} introduces the accusative object kol-had-de-ḇārîm hā-ʾēl-leh {כָּל־הַדְּבָרִים הָאֵלֶּה | kol-had-de-ḇā-rîm ha-ʾēl-leh} 'all these words', and the relative clause ʾă-šer ṣiw-wā-hû Yə-hō-wāh {אֲשֶׁר צִוָּהוּ יְהוָה | ʾă-šer ṣiw-wā-hû Yə-hō-wāh} 'which the LORD had commanded him' attributes divine authority and source. The translation preserves the Hebrew clause order while adapting idioms for clarity.
