Exegesis
The adverb hayyom {הַיּ֣וֹם | hay-yôm} ‘today’ marks temporal immediacy, and the particle ap-ʾattāh {אַף־אָֽתָּה | ʾap-ʾat-tāh} ‘even you’ functions as an emphatic pronoun. The sequence purpose → object → main verb → temporal → emphasis underscores the intended outcome of personal trust in the divine.
