Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:6] On that day I supported them with My hand to bring them out of Egypt’s land into the land I prepared for them, a land flowing with milk and honey; it is a honeycomb compared with all the earth.

Different. Text: Hebrew’s raised hand and searched-out land becomes Greek support and preparation. Hebrew splendor contrasts with Greek honeycomb.
Verse 20:7 Similar
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)

Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:8] They revolted from Me and would not listen to Me. They did not cast away the abominations of their eyes or abandon Egypt’s practices. I said I would pour My wrath upon them and complete My anger in them in the midst of Egypt’s land.

Verse 20:13 Different
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:13] But the house of Israel rebelled against Me in the wilderness. They did not walk in My statutes and rejected My judgments, which a person shall do and live by them; they greatly profaned My sabbaths. I said I would pour My fury upon them in the wilderness to consume them.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:13] I said to the house of Israel in the wilderness, “Walk in My commands.” But they did not walk, and they rejected My ordinances, which a person shall do and live by them; they greatly profaned My sabbaths. I said I would pour My wrath upon them in the wilderness to consume them utterly.

[20:18] I said to their children in the wilderness, “Do not walk in your fathers’ ordinances, do not keep their judgments, do not mix yourselves with their practices, and do not be defiled.

Different. Text: Greek adds an explicit prohibition on mingling with their practices and separately denies defilement, against Hebrew’s single idol-defilement clause.
Verse 20:19 Same
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:19] I am YHWH your God. Walk in My statutes, keep My judgments and carry them out.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)

[20:20] and sanctify My sabbaths; let it be a sign between Me and you, so that you may know that I am the Lord your God.”
Classification & Notes
Similar. Text: Hebrew they will be becomes Greek singular let it be; the sign’s purpose corresponds.
Verse 20:21 Similar
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:21] But the sons rebelled against Me. They did not walk in My statutes or keep My judgments to carry them out, which a person shall do and live by them; they profaned My sabbaths. I said I would pour My fury upon them and spend My anger against them in the wilderness.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:21] Their children too embittered Me. They did not walk in My commands or keep My ordinances to carry them out, which a person shall do and live by them; they were profaning My sabbaths. I said I would pour My wrath upon them in the wilderness and complete My anger upon them.

Similar. Text: The second generation’s repeated conduct and threatened judgment remain complete, including the life formula.
Verse 20:22 Divergent
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)

Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:22] I acted so that My name would not be profaned at all before the nations from whom I brought them out before their eyes.

Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:25] I too gave them commands that were not good, and ordinances in which they would not live.
Classification & Notes
Same. Text: Both explicitly make God the giver of non-good statutes and non-life-giving ordinances; no permitted-them-to-follow paraphrase replaces this wording.
Verse 20:26 Disparate
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:26] I defiled them through their gifts, when they made every opener of the womb pass over, so that I might desolate them, so that they might know that I am YHWH.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:26] I will defile them through their gifts, when I pass through every opener of the womb, so that I may destroy them.
Classification & Notes
Disparate. Text: Hebrew past defilement contrasts with Greek future. Greek explicitly makes Me the subject of passing through and lacks the final recognition-purpose clause. Neither verse here names fire; Hebrew 20:31 does.
20:27–20:32 — The high places and the present generation
Verse 20:27 Similar
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:27] Therefore speak to the house of Israel, son of man, and say to them, ‘Thus says Lord YHWH: In this also your fathers reviled Me, in the unfaithfulness with which they were unfaithful to Me.

Classification & Notes
Similar. Text: Hebrew reviling and unfaithfulness becomes Greek angering and transgressions.
Verse 20:28 Different
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:28] I brought them into the land I raised My hand to give them. They saw every high hill and every leafy tree; there they sacrificed their sacrifices, there they presented their provoking offering, there they set their soothing aromas, and there they poured their drink offerings.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:28] I brought them into the land I raised My hand to give them. They saw every high hill and every shady tree; there they sacrificed to their gods, there they set a fragrant aroma, and there they poured their libations.
Classification & Notes
Different. Text: Greek explicitly names their gods but lacks the separate Hebrew provoking-offering clause; Hebrew plural aromas becomes Greek singular.
Verse 20:29 Different
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:29] I said to them, “What is this high place to which you go?” Its name was called Bamah to this day.’
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:29] I said to them, “What is Abama, that you go in there?” They called its name Abama to this very day.’
Classification & Notes
Different. Text: Hebrew names and puns upon bamah, high place; Greek transliterates Abama and explicitly names plural namers.

Verse 20:31 Disparate
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:31] By lifting up your gifts and making your sons pass through the fire, you defile yourselves with all your idols to this day. Shall I let you inquire of Me, house of Israel? As I live, declares Lord YHWH, I will certainly not let you inquire of Me.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:31] In the firstfruits of your gifts, in your separations, you are being defiled with all your reflections to this very day. Shall I answer you, house of Israel? As I live, says the Lord, I will certainly not answer you, nor shall this rise upon your spirit.
Classification & Notes
Disparate. Text: Hebrew explicitly names sons passing through fire; Greek instead has firstfruits and separations, without sons or fire. Greek adds the rising-upon-your-spirit clause corresponding to the opening of Hebrew 20:32; it is translated here only once.
Verse 20:32 Different
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:32] What rises upon your spirit shall certainly not happen—what you say: “We will be like the nations, like the clans of the lands, serving wood and stone.”
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:32] It will not be as you say: “We will be like the nations and like the tribes of the earth, serving woods and stones.”
Classification & Notes
Different. Text: The opening mind clause is in Greek 20:31. Greek retains plural woods and stones against Hebrew’s collective singular objects.

Verse 20:33 Similar
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:33] As I live, declares Lord YHWH, surely with a strong hand, an outstretched arm and outpoured fury I will reign over you.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:33] Therefore, as I live, says the Lord, with a mighty hand, a high arm and outpoured wrath I will reign over you.
Classification & Notes
Similar. Text: Hebrew outstretched arm becomes Greek high arm; the divine reign remains explicit.
Verse 20:34 Similar
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:34] I will bring you out from the peoples and gather you from the lands where you have been scattered, with a strong hand, an outstretched arm and outpoured fury.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:34] I will bring you out from the peoples and receive you from the countries where you were scattered, with a mighty hand, a high arm and outpoured wrath.

Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:35] I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples and enter into judgment with you there, face to face.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:35] I will bring you into the wilderness of the peoples and contend with you there, face to face.
Classification & Notes
Similar. Text: Both retain the unusual wilderness-of-the-peoples location and face-to-face judgment.
Verse 20:36 Same
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:36] As I entered into judgment with your fathers in the wilderness of Egypt’s land, so I will enter into judgment with you, declares Lord YHWH.

Verse 20:37 Disparate
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:37] I will make you pass beneath the rod and bring you into the bond of the covenant.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:37] I will lead you beneath My rod and bring you in by number,
Classification & Notes
Disparate. Text: Greek explicitly says My rod and by number; it lacks the Hebrew covenant bond.
Verse 20:38 Different
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:38] I will purge from you the rebels and those transgressing against Me. I will bring them out of the land where they sojourn, but no one will enter Israel’s soil. You will know that I am YHWH.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:38] and select from you the impious and those who have revolted, for I will bring them out of their sojourning, but they will not enter Israel’s land. You will recognize that I am the Lord.
Classification & Notes
Different. Text: Hebrew purging becomes Greek selecting. Hebrew’s final entry verb is singular, rendered distributively no one; Greek is plural. Greek lacks land before sojourning and the explicit against Me.
20:39–20:44 — Worship, gathering and remembrance
Verse 20:39 Disparate
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:39] And you, house of Israel, thus says Lord YHWH: Go, each of you, serve his idols! Afterward, if you are not listening to Me, you shall no longer profane My holy name with your gifts and idols.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:39] And you, house of Israel, thus says the Lord, the Lord: Each of you, remove his practices! After these things, if you are not listening to Me, you shall no longer profane My holy name with your gifts and practices.
Classification & Notes
Disparate. Text: Hebrew commands serving idols; Greek commands removing practices, a material reversal. The doubled Greek Lord is retained. The difficult following if-not clause remains conditional rather than being silently turned into an affirmative promise.
Verse 20:40 Different
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:40] For upon My holy mountain, upon Israel’s mountain height, declares Lord YHWH, there the whole house of Israel, all of it in the land, will serve Me. There I will accept them; there I will require your contributions and the first of your lifted offerings, with all your holy things.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:40] For upon My holy mountain, upon a high mountain, says the Lord, the Lord, there the whole house of Israel will serve Me to the end. There I will accept, and there I will attend to your firstfruits and the firstfruits of your separations, with all your holy things.
Classification & Notes
Different. Text: Greek lacks the named Israel mountain and in-the-land phrase, gives to the end and repeats firstfruits. Greek accept has no supplied object; the doubled Lord is retained.
Verse 20:41 Similar
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:41] As a soothing aroma I will accept you when I bring you out from the peoples and gather you from the lands where you have been scattered. I will be sanctified through you before the eyes of the nations.
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:41] As a fragrant aroma I will accept you when I bring you out from the peoples and receive you from the countries where you were scattered. I will be sanctified among you before the eyes of the peoples.
Classification & Notes
Similar. Text: Hebrew gather/nations becomes Greek receive/peoples; both retain divine sanctification.

Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:43] There you will remember your ways and your practices by which you were being defiled; you will beat your faces over all your evils.
Classification & Notes
Different. Text: Hebrew self-loathing becomes Greek beating the face. Greek lacks all before practices and the final you-committed clause.
Verse 20:44 Different
Hebrew–English: Literal-Smooth (Rabbinic Priority)
[20:44] You will know that I am YHWH when I deal with you for My name’s sake, not according to your evil ways and corrupt deeds, house of Israel, declares Lord YHWH.’”
Greek–English: Literal-Smooth (Saints Priority)
[20:44] You will recognize that I am the Lord when I deal thus with you so that My name may not be profaned according to your evil ways and corrupt practices, says the Lord.’”
Classification & Notes
Different. Text: Hebrew explicitly denies dealing according to their conduct; Greek instead denies profaning God’s name according to that conduct. Greek lacks the final house-of-Israel address.
