רְאֵה נָתַתִּי לְפָנֶיךָ הַיּוֹם אֶת־הַחַיִּים וְאֶת־הַטּוֹב וְאֶת־הַמָּוֶת וְאֶת־הָרָע׃
See, I set before you this day life and prosperity, death and adversity.
Targum Onkelos
חֲזִי דִּיהַבִית קֳדָמָךְ יוֹמָא דֵין יָת חַיֵּי וְיָת טָבְתָא וְיָת מוֹתָא וְיָת בִּשְׁתָּא׃
See, I have placed before you today life and good, and death and bad.
- Deuteronomy 30:16
אֲשֶׁר אָנֹכִי מְצַוְּךָ הַיּוֹם לְאַהֲבָה אֶת־יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ לָלֶכֶת בִּדְרָכָיו וְלִשְׁמֹר מִצְוֺתָיו וְחֻקֹּתָיו וּמִשְׁפָּטָיו וְחָיִיתָ וְרָבִיתָ וּבֵרַכְךָ יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ בָּאָרֶץ אֲשֶׁר־אַתָּה בָא־שָׁמָּה לְרִשְׁתָּהּ׃
For I command you this day, to love the ETERNAL your God, to walk in God’s ways, and to keep God’s commandments, laws, and rules—that you may thrive and increase, and that the ETERNAL your God may bless you in the land that you are about to enter and possess.
Targum Onkelos
דַּאֲנָא מְפַקֵּיד לָךְ יוֹמָא דֵין לְמִרְחַם יָת יְיָ אֱלָהָךְ לִמְהָךְ בְּאוֹרְחָן דְּתָקְנָן קֳדָמוֹהִי וּלְמִטַּר פִּקּוֹדוֹהִי וּקְיָמוֹהִי וְדִינוֹהִי וְתֵיחֵי וְתִסְגֵּי וִיבָרְכִנָּךְ יְיָ אֱלָהָךְ בְּאַרְעָא דְּאַתְּ עָלֵיל לְתַמָּן לְמֵירְתַהּ׃
For which I command you this day, to love Adonoy, your God, to go in His ways [proper before Him] and to guard His commandments and His statutes and His laws; and you will live and you will flourish, and Adonoy, your God, will bless you in the land that you are coming there to inherit.
- Deuteronomy 30:17
וְאִם־יִפְנֶה לְבָבְךָ וְלֹא תִשְׁמָע וְנִדַּחְתָּ וְהִשְׁתַּחֲוִיתָ לֵאלֹהִים אֲחֵרִים וַעֲבַדְתָּם׃
But if your heart turns away and you give no heed, and are lured into the worship and service of other gods,
Targum Onkelos
וְאִם יִתְפְּנֵי לִבָּךְ וְלָא תְקַבֵּיל וְתִטְעֵי וְתִסְגּוֹד לְטָעֲוָת עַמְמַיָּא וְתִפְלְחִנִּין׃
But if your heart strays and you do not listen [accept], and you are misled, and you prostrate yourself to other gods [idols of the nations] and worship them.
- Deuteronomy 30:18
הִגַּדְתִּי לָכֶם הַיּוֹם כִּי אָבֹד תֹּאבֵדוּן לֹא־תַאֲרִיכֻן יָמִים עַל־הָאֲדָמָה אֲשֶׁר אַתָּה עֹבֵר אֶת־הַיַּרְדֵּן לָבוֹא שָׁמָּה לְרִשְׁתָּהּ׃
I declare to you this day that you shall certainly perish; you shall not long endure on the soil that you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess.
Targum Onkelos
חַוִּיתִי לְכוֹן יוֹמָא דֵין אֲרֵי מֵיבַד תֵּיבְדוּן לָא תֵירְכוּן יוֹמִין עַל אַרְעָא דְּאַתְּ עָבַר יָת יַרְדְּנָא לְמֵיעַל לְתַמָּן לְמֵירְתַהּ׃
I tell [have shown] you today that you shall certainly perish; you will not remain long on the land that you are crossing the Yardein to come there to inherit.
- Deuteronomy 30:19
הַעִדֹתִי בָכֶם הַיּוֹם אֶת־הַשָּׁמַיִם וְאֶת־הָאָרֶץ הַחַיִּים וְהַמָּוֶת נָתַתִּי לְפָנֶיךָ הַבְּרָכָה וְהַקְּלָלָה וּבָחַרְתָּ בַּחַיִּים לְמַעַן תִּחְיֶה אַתָּה וְזַרְעֶךָ׃
I call heaven and earth to witness against you this day: I have put before you life and death, blessing and curse. Choose life—if you and your offspring would live—
Targum Onkelos
אַסְהֵידִית בְּכוֹן יוֹמָא דֵין יָת שְׁמַיָּא וְיָת אַרְעָא חַיֵּי וּמוֹתָא יְהַבִית קֳדָמָךְ בִּרְכָן וּלְוָטִין וְתִתְרְעֵי בְחַיֵּי בְּדִיל דְּתֵיחֵי אַתְּ וּבְנָךְ׃

- Deuteronomy 30:20
לְאַהֲבָה אֶת־יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ לִשְׁמֹעַ בְּקֹלוֹ וּלְדׇבְקָה־בוֹ כִּי הוּא חַיֶּיךָ וְאֹרֶךְ יָמֶיךָ לָשֶׁבֶת עַל־הָאֲדָמָה אֲשֶׁר נִשְׁבַּע יְהֹוָה לַאֲבֹתֶיךָ לְאַבְרָהָם לְיִצְחָק וּלְיַעֲקֹב לָתֵת לָהֶם׃
by loving the ETERNAL your God, by heeding God’s commands, and by holding fast to [God]. For thereby you shall have life and shall long endure upon the soil that GOD swore to your fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, to give to them.
Targum Onkelos
לְמִרְחַם יָת יְיָ אֱלָהָךְ לְקַבָּלָא לְמֵימְרֵיהּ וּלְאִתְקָרָבָא לְדַחְלְתֵיהּ אֲרֵי הוּא חַיָּיךְ וְאוֹרָכוּת יוֹמָךְ לְמִתַּב עַל אַרְעָא דְּקַיֵּים יְיָ לַאֲבָהָתָךְ לְאַבְרָהָם לְיִצְחָק וּלְיַעֲקֹב לְמִתַּן לְהוֹן׃
To love Adonoy, your God, to obey Him [accept His word] and to cling to [the fear of] Him; for He is your life and your longevity, to live on the soil that Adonoy swore to your forefathers—to Avrohom, to Yitzchok, and to Yaakov—to give them.

He said to them: I am now one hundred and twenty years old, I can no longer be active. Moreover, GOD has said to me, “You shall not go across yonder Jordan.”
Targum Onkelos
וַאֲמַר לְהוֹן בַּר מְאָה וְעֶשְׂרִין שְׁנִין אֲנָא יוֹמָא דֵין לֵית אֲנָא יָכֵיל עוֹד לְמִפַּק וּלְמֵיעַל וַייָ אֲמַר לִי לָא תִעְבַּר יָת יַרְדְּנָא הָדֵין׃

יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ הוּא ׀ עֹבֵר לְפָנֶיךָ הוּא־יַשְׁמִיד אֶת־הַגּוֹיִם הָאֵלֶּה מִלְּפָנֶיךָ וִירִשְׁתָּם יְהוֹשֻׁעַ הוּא עֹבֵר לְפָנֶיךָ כַּאֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יְהֹוָה׃
It is indeed the ETERNAL your God who will cross over before you, and who will wipe out those nations from your path; and you shall dispossess them.—Joshua is the one who shall cross before you, as GOD has spoken.—
Targum Onkelos
יְיָ אֱלָהָךְ הוּא עָבַר קֳדָמָךְ הוּא יְשֵׁיצֵי יָת עַמְמַיָּא הָאִלֵּין מִן קֳדָמָךְ וְתֵירְתִנּוּן יְהוֹשׁוּעַ הוּא עָבַר קֳדָמָךְ כְּמָא דְּמַלֵּיל יְיָ׃
Adonoy, your God, He [His word] is crossing before you, He will destroy these nations before you and you will inherit them. Yehoshua, he is crossing before you as Adonoy has stated.

וְעָשָׂה יְהֹוָה לָהֶם כַּאֲשֶׁר עָשָׂה לְסִיחוֹן וּלְעוֹג מַלְכֵי הָאֱמֹרִי וּלְאַרְצָם אֲשֶׁר הִשְׁמִיד אֹתָם׃
GOD will do to them as was done to Sihon and Og, kings of the Amorites, and to their countries, when they were wiped out.
Targum Onkelos
וְיַעֲבֵיד יְיָ לְהוֹן כְּמָא דַּעֲבַד לְסִיחוֹן וּלְעוֹג מַלְכֵי אֱמוֹרָאָה וּלְאֲרַעְהוֹן דְּשֵׁיצֵי יָתְהוֹן׃

GOD will deliver them up to you, and you shall deal with them in full accordance with the Instruction that I have enjoined upon you.
Targum Onkelos
וְיִמְסְרִנּוּן יְיָ קֳדָמֵיכוֹן וְתַעְבְּדוּן לְהוֹן כְּכָל תַּפְקֵידְתָּא דְּפַקֵּידִית יָתְכוֹן׃
Adonoy will defeat [deliver] them before you, and you will do to them in accord with the mitzvah that I commanded you.
- Deuteronomy 31:6
חִזְקוּ וְאִמְצוּ אַל־תִּירְאוּ וְאַל־תַּעַרְצוּ מִפְּנֵיהֶם כִּי ׀ יְהֹוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ הוּא הַהֹלֵךְ עִמָּךְ לֹא יַרְפְּךָ וְלֹא יַעַזְבֶךָּ׃
Be strong and resolute; be not in fear or in dread of them, for it is indeed the ETERNAL your God who marches with you—who will not fail you or forsake you.
Targum Onkelos
תְּקַפוּ וְעֵילַמוּ לָא תִדְחֲלוּן וְלָא תִתַּבְרוּן מִן קֳדָמֵיהוֹן אֲרֵי יְיָ אֱלָהָךְ מֵימְרֵיהּ מְדַבַּר קֳדָמָךְ לָא יִשְׁבְּקִנָּךְ וְלָא יְרַחֲקִנָּךְ׃
Be courageous and bold, do not fear and do not quake before them; for Adonoy, your God, it is He Who is going with you, He will not enfeeble you nor will He abandon you.’’
