The Key Word — עָבַד, ve.'a.vad.Tagenerated
The verb עָבַד (avad) means to serve or work, and can imply slavery or bondage. In this context, it indicates a forced servitude to enemies, contrasting with the voluntary service expected of the Israelites to God.
The parsing as a sequential perfect second person masculine singular indicates that this is a direct address to the Israelites, warning them of the future consequences of their actions.
How Translations Differ — measured against the Berean Standard Biblegenerated
Translations generally agree on the meaning of עָבַד as 'serve.' The BSB, KJV, and ASV all use 'serve,' while YLT uses 'serve' as well.
Sentence Structuregenerated
The main verb עָבַדְתָּ֣ governs the sentence, indicating that the subject (you) will serve. Several phrases follow, detailing the conditions and the nature of this servitude.
The structure emphasizes the sequential consequences of disobedience, with the finite verb leading into a series of prepositional and noun phrases that outline the hardships to come.
Septuagint Backgroundgenerated
The Septuagint translates עָבַד as λατρεύσεις (latreusēs), which carries the connotation of worship or service, suggesting a more formal relationship than mere servitude. This choice indicates an interpretation that highlights the gravity of serving one's adversaries.
This translation choice reflects a broader understanding of servitude, connecting it to the worship context within the Greek-speaking audience.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Deuteronomy 28:48 warns that if the Israelites do not serve the LORD joyfully, they will instead serve their enemies. This servitude will come with severe hardships such as hunger, thirst, nakedness, and poverty, symbolized by an iron yoke placed on their necks until they are destroyed.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated
Serving your enemies means being subjected to their authority and oppression, contrasting with the freedom and joy that comes from serving God.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text and the Samaritan Pentateuch differ in two words: the Samaritan uses עירם (naked) instead of the Masoretic עֵירֹם, and עול (yoke) instead of עֹל. The Dead Sea Scrolls show variations, with some words restored or supplied by editors, but largely align with the Masoretic Text.

יְהֹוָה (ye.ho.vah) is the proper name of the God of Israel, often rendered as Jehovah or the Lord. It signifies the self-existent or eternal nature of God. The name is closely associated with the revelation to Moses in Exodus 3:12-15 and is used in conjunction with other terms to denote sacred places. Some scholars suggest it derives from a root meaning 'to bring into being.'
יהוה c. 6823 i.e. יַהְוֶה n.pr.dei Yahweh, the proper name of the God of Israel—(1. MT יְהֹוָה 6518 (Qr אֲדֹנָי), or יֱהֹוִה 305 (Qr אֱלֹהִים) 2. Many recent scholars explain יַהְוֶה as Hiph. of הוה (= היה) the one bringing into being, life-giver)
יהוה is not used by E in Gn, but is given Ex 3:12-15 as the name of the God who revealed Himself to Moses at Horeb
יהוה is used with אלהים and suffixes, especially in D
the phrase † אֲנִי יהוה is noteworthy
יהוה is also used with several predicates, to form sacred names of holy places of Yahweh

(1) In Anglo-Saxon, had the meaning "from," "away from" (as the strengthened form "off" has still), and was not used for genitive or possessive relations, these being expressed by special case-forms. In the Norman period, however, "of" was taken to represent the French de (a use well developed by the time of Chaucer), and in the Elizabethan period both senses of "of" were in common use. But after about 1600 the later force of the word became predominant, and in the earlier sense (which is now practically obsolete) it was replaced by other prepositions. In consequence the King James Version (and in some cases the Revised Version (British and American)) contains many uses of "of" that are no longer familiar--most of them, to be sure, causing no difficulty, but there still being a few responsible for real obscurities.

The Vulgate and the LXX. Versions have “Heliopolis” (“city of the sun”) instead of On in Genesis and of Aven in Ezekiel. The “city of destruction” Isaiah speaks of (19:18, marg. “of Heres;” Heb. ‘Ir-ha-heres, which some MSS. read Ir-ha-heres, i.e., “city of the sun”) may be the name given to On, the prophecy being that the time will come when that city which was known as the “city of the sun-god” shall become the “city of destruction” of the sun-god, i.e., when idolatry shall cease, and the worship…

It was situated on the east side of the Pelusiac branch of the Nile, just below the point of the Delta, and about twenty miles northeast of Memphis. The chief object of worship at Heliopolis was the sun, whose temple, described by Strabo, is now only represented by the single beautiful obelisk, of red granite so feet 2 inches high above the pedestal which has stood for more than 4000 years, having been erected by Usirtesen, the second king of the twelfth dynasty.
