¹² “^(A)And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God require of you, but to ^[a]fear the Lord your God, to walk in all His ways and ^(B)love Him, and to serve the Lord your God with ^(C)all your heart and with all your soul, ¹³ and to keep the Lord’s commandments and His statutes which I am commanding you today for your good? ¹⁴ Behold, ^(D)to the Lord your God belong heaven and the ^[b]highest heavens, ^(E)the earth and all that is in it. ^15 (F)Yet the Lord set His affection on your fathers, to love them, and He chose their ^[c]descendants after them, you over all the other peoples, as it is this day. ^16 (G)So circumcise ^[d]your heart, and do not ^(H)stiffen your neck any longer. ^17 (I)For the Lord your God is the God of gods and the ^(J)Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the awesome 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 His love for the stranger by giving him food and clothing. ^19 (N)So show your love for the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt. ²⁰ You shall fear the Lord your God; you shall serve Him, and ^(O)cling to Him, and ^(P)you shall swear by His name. ²¹ He is ^(Q)your glory and He is your God, who has done these great and awesome things for you which your eyes have seen. ^22 (R)Your fathers went down to Egypt seventy persons in all, ^(S)and now the Lord your God has made you as numerous as the stars of heaven.
