Sentence Structuregenerated
The finite verbs שְׁמַרְתֶּם and עֲשִׂיתֶם govern the main clauses, indicating what the Israelites are commanded to do. The structure is straightforward, with the verbs leading the commands and the objects following them.
The sentence is built around two main actions: keeping and doing, which are central to the Israelites' covenant obligations. The use of the object markers emphasizes the statutes and judgments that are to be kept and followed.

The translation of מִשְׁפָּטַי as μου indicates possession, emphasizing that these judgments are God's and should be followed as such.
In plain words — the whole versegenerated
Leviticus 19:37 commands the Israelites to keep all of God's statutes and ordinances. This means they are to carefully follow and obey the laws given to them by the LORD, who identifies Himself as Yahweh. These instructions are part of a larger set of guidelines meant to shape the ethical and ritual life of the community.
Frequently Asked Questionsgenerated

Statutes and ordinances are important because they reflect God's character and will for His people, guiding them in their relationship with Him and with one another.
While the specific laws may differ, the principle of obedience to God's guidance remains relevant. We can seek to understand and live by the moral and ethical teachings found in Scripture.
By identifying Himself as Yahweh, God emphasizes His eternal nature and His covenant relationship with Israel, reminding them of His authority and their obligation to follow His commands.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text of Leviticus 19:37 states, "You must keep all My statutes and all My ordinances and follow them. I am the LORD." The Septuagint closely matches this text with 10 out of 11 words in agreement, although it presents them in its own order and structure. The Samaritan Pentateuch differs from the Masoretic Text by using the word חקותי (meaning 'regulation') instead of חקתי (meaning 'statutes'). The Dead Sea Scrolls fragment 4Q26a contains parts of the verse, but it is mostly restored and does not provide a complete comparison with the Masoretic Text.
וּשְׁמַרְתֶּ֤ם אֶת־ כָּל־ חֻקֹּתַי֙ וְאֶת־ כָּל־ מִשְׁפָּטַ֔י וַעֲשִׂיתֶ֖ם אֹתָ֑ם אֲנִ֖י יְהוָֽה׃ פ
10 of the 11 words are matched. This is the word-by-word correspondence, not the Septuagint's own sentence — its word order and its articles are its own.
ושׁמרתם את כל חקותי ואת כל משׁפטי ועשׂיתם אתם אני יהוה
1 word differs from the Masoretic Text: חקותי (regulation)
[ושמרתם] [את] [כל] חקת׳י [ואת]

Four traditions, not one. “On the leather” means the letters physically survive on the scroll, as against letters an editor has supplied to fill a hole in it — a restoration is a scholar’s reading, not a reading of the manuscript.

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 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
