And keeps his hand from doing any evil.”
3 Do not let (B)the son of the foreigner
Who has joined himself to the Lord
Speak, saying,
“The Lord has utterly separated me from His people”;
Nor let the (C)eunuch say,

And choose what pleases Me,
And hold fast My covenant,

Mark 12:30-34
New King James Version
30 And you shall (A)love the Lord your God with all your heart, with all your soul, with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ [a]This is the first commandment. 31 And the second, like it, is this: (B)‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than (C)these.”
32 So the scribe said to Him, “Well said, Teacher. You have spoken the truth, for there is one God, (D)and there is no other but He. 33 And to love Him with all the heart, with all the understanding, [b]with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love one’s neighbor as oneself, (E)is more than all the whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.”
34 Now when Jesus saw that he answered wisely, He said to him, “You are not far from the kingdom of God.”
(F)But after that no one dared question Him.
