Abraham and the Covenant of Circumcision

17 Now when Abram was ninety-nine years old, ^(A)the Lord appeared to Abram and said to him,

^13 (A)You are to be blameless before the Lord your God.

^61 (A)Your hearts therefore shall be ^[a]wholly devoted to the Lord our God, to walk in His statutes and to keep His commandments, as at this day.”

⁴ For when Solomon was old, his wives turned his heart away ^[a]to follow other gods; and ^(A)his heart was not ^[b]wholly devoted to the Lord his God, as the heart of his father David had been.

⁹ For ^(A)the eyes of the Lord roam throughout the earth, so that He may strongly support those ^(B)whose heart is completely His. You have acted foolishly in this. Indeed, from now on you will have wars.”

¹⁷ But the high places were not removed from Israel; nevertheless Asa’s heart was blameless all his days.
