Circumcise Your Heart
12 “(A)So now, Israel, what does Yahweh your God ask from you, but to [a]fear Yahweh your God, to walk in all His ways and (B)love Him, and to serve Yahweh your God with (C)all your heart and with all your soul, 13 and to keep the commandments of Yahweh and His statutes which I am commanding you today for your good? 14 Behold, (D)to Yahweh your God belong heaven and the [b]highest heavens, (E)the earth and all that is in it. 15 (F)Yet on your fathers did Yahweh set His affection to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you above all peoples, as it is this day. 16 (G)So circumcise [c]your heart, and (H)stiffen your neck no longer. 17 (I)For Yahweh your God is the God of gods and the (J)Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the fearsome God (K)who does not show partiality nor (L)take a bribe. 18 He executes justice for (M)the orphan and the widow, and shows love for the sojourner by giving him food and clothing. 19 (N)So show love for the sojourner, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt. 20 Yahweh your God you shall fear; Him you shall serve, and to Him you shall (O)cling, and by His name (P)you shall swear. 21 He is (Q)your praise, and He is your God, who has done these great and fearsome things for you which your eyes have seen. 22 (R)Your fathers went down to Egypt seventy persons in all, (S)and now Yahweh your God has made you as numerous as the stars of heaven.

New International Version
Fear the Lord
12 And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you(A) but to fear(B) the Lord your God, to walk(C) in obedience to him, to love him,(D) to serve the Lord(E) your God with all your heart(F) and with all your soul,(G) 13 and to observe the Lord’s commands(H) and decrees that I am giving you today for your own good?(I)
14 To the Lord your God belong the heavens,(J) even the highest heavens,(K) the earth and everything in it.(L) 15 Yet the Lord set his affection on your ancestors and loved(M) them, and he chose you,(N) their descendants, above all the nations—as it is today.(O) 16 Circumcise(P) your hearts,(Q) therefore, and do not be stiff-necked(R) any longer. 17 For the Lord your God is God of gods(S) and Lord of lords,(T) the great God, mighty and awesome,(U) who shows no partiality(V) and accepts no bribes.(W) 18 He defends the cause of the fatherless and the widow,(X) and loves the foreigner residing among you, giving them food and clothing.(Y) 19 And you are to love(Z) those who are foreigners,(AA) for you yourselves were foreigners in Egypt.(AB) 20 Fear the Lord your God and serve him.(AC) Hold fast(AD) to him and take your oaths in his name.(AE) 21 He is the one you praise;(AF) he is your God, who performed for you those great(AG) and awesome wonders(AH) you saw with your own eyes. 22 Your ancestors who went down into Egypt were seventy in all,(AI) and now the Lord your God has made you as numerous as the stars in the sky.(AJ)
