The LORD your God which goeth before you, he shall fight for you, according to all that he did for you in Egypt before your eyes;
The LORD your God goes ahead of you, and he will fight for you, just like he did for you in Egypt right before your eyes.
God is promising to fight ahead of his people, just as he powerfully delivered them from Egypt.
