The Key Word — בְּרִיתִ֖י, be.ri.Tigenerated
The word בְּרִית (berith) refers to a covenant or agreement, particularly one established between God and His people. It signifies a formal commitment that carries deep implications for both parties involved. The parsing as a feminine singular construct with a suffix indicates that this covenant is personal and specific to the relationship God has with the Israelites.
Covenants in the Bible often involve promises and obligations, and here it emphasizes God's faithfulness to His people. The use of this term in the context of Leviticus underscores the importance of the relationship between God and Israel, highlighting the blessings that come from obedience to His commands.

The four witnesses to this verse — Masoretic, Septuagint, Samaritan, Qumran
The Masoretic Text and the Septuagint show close agreement, with 9 of the 10 words matched. The Samaritan Pentateuch differs slightly with the word הקמתי (arise) instead of the Masoretic הֲקִימֹתִ֥י (establish). The Dead Sea Scrolls contain fragments that match the Masoretic Text closely, though some words are restored.
