Deuteronomy 7:6-11
Good News Translation
6 (A)Do this because you belong to the Lord your God. From all the peoples on earth he chose you to be his own special people.
7 “The Lord did not love you and choose you because you outnumbered other peoples; you were the smallest nation on earth. 8 But the Lord loved you and wanted to keep the promise that he made to your ancestors. That is why he saved you by his great might and set you free from slavery to the king of Egypt. 9 (B)Remember that the Lord your God is the only God and that he is faithful. He will keep his covenant and show his constant love to a thousand generations of those who love him and obey his commands, 10 but he will not hesitate to punish those who hate him. 11 Now then, obey what you have been taught; obey all the laws that I have given you today.

Deuteronomy 7:6-11
New International Version
6 For you are a people holy(A) to the Lord your God.(B) The Lord your God has chosen(C) you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be his people, his treasured possession.(D)
7 The Lord did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous(E) than other peoples, for you were the fewest(F) of all peoples.(G) 8 But it was because the Lord loved(H) you and kept the oath he swore(I) to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand(J) and redeemed(K) you from the land of slavery,(L) from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt. 9 Know therefore that the Lord your God is God;(M) he is the faithful God,(N) keeping his covenant of love(O) to a thousand generations(P) of those who love him and keep his commandments.(Q) 10 But
those who hate him he will repay to their face by destruction;
he will not be slow to repay to their face those who hate him.(R)
11 Therefore, take care to follow the commands, decrees and laws I give you today.
