THE MESSAGE
I'm not making this Covenant and its oath with you alone. I am making it with you who are standing here today in the Presence of God , our God, yes, but also with those who are not here today. You know the conditions in which we lived in Egypt and how we crisscrossed through nations in our travels. You got an eyeful of their obscenities, their wood and stone, silver and gold junk-gods. Don't let down your guard lest even now, today, someone—man or woman, clan or tribe—gets sidetracked from God , our God, and gets involved with the no-gods of the nations; lest some poisonous weed sprout and spread among you, a person who hears the words of the Covenant-oath but exempts himself, thinking, "I'll live just the way I please, thank you," and ends up ruining life for everybody. God won't let him off the hook. God 's anger and jealousy will erupt like a volcano against that person. The curses written in this book will bury him. God will delete his name from the records. God will separate him out from all the tribes of Israel for special punishment, according to all the curses of the Covenant written in this Book of Revelation.

New American Standard Bible (1995)
"Now not with you alone am I making this covenant and this oath,

Contextual Overview

¹⁰ "Today you are standing in the presence of the Lord your God, all of you—your leaders and officials, your men, ¹¹ women, and children, and the foreigners who live among you and cut wood and carry water for you. ¹² You are here today to enter into this covenant that the Lord your God is making with you and to accept its obligations, ¹³ so that the Lord may now confirm you as his people and be your God, as he promised you and your ancestors, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob. ¹⁴ You are not the only ones with whom the Lord is making this covenant with its obligations. ¹⁵ He is making it with all of us who stand here in his presence today and also with our descendants who are not yet born. ¹⁶ "You remember what life was like in Egypt and what it was like to travel through the territory of other nations. ¹⁷ You saw their disgusting idols made of wood, stone, silver, and gold. ¹⁸ Make sure that no man, woman, family, or tribe standing here today turns from the Lord our God to worship the gods of other nations. This would be like a root that grows to be a bitter and poisonous plant. ¹⁹ Make sure that there is no one here today who hears these solemn demands and yet convinces himself that all will be well with him, even if he stubbornly goes his own way. That would destroy all of you, good and evil alike.

Gill's Notes on the Bible

Neither with you only do I make this covenant and this oath. That is, Moses; for he was ordered to make this covenant with them in the name of the Lord; what promises of good things, or declarations of his mind and will, God would make, Moses was to deliver to them; and what was required of them he would inform them of. Aben Ezra interprets it, not only you, but those that will come after you, your sons and your sons' sons.
