(A)Yahweh did not set His affection on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any of the peoples, for you were the fewest of all peoples, but because Yahweh loved you and kept the (B)oath which He swore to your fathers, (C)Yahweh brought you out with a strong hand and redeemed you from the house of [a]slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. You shall know therefore that Yahweh your God, (D)He is God, (E)the faithful God, (F)who keeps [b]His covenant and [c]His lovingkindness to a thousand generations with those who (G)love Him and keep His commandments; 10 but (H)repays those who hate Him to [d]their faces, to make [e]them perish; He will not delay [f]with him who hates Him, He will repay him to his face. 11 Therefore, you shall keep the commandment and the statutes and the judgments which I am commanding you today, to do them.

The Lord did not set his affection on you and choose you because you were more numerous(A) than other peoples, for you were the fewest(B) of all peoples.(C) But it was because the Lord loved(D) you and kept the oath he swore(E) to your ancestors that he brought you out with a mighty hand(F) and redeemed(G) you from the land of slavery,(H) from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt. Know therefore that the Lord your God is God;(I) he is the faithful God,(J) keeping his covenant of love(K) to a thousand generations(L) of those who love him and keep his commandments.(M) 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.(N)
