"^(C1)And now, Israel, what does the LORD your God require of you, but to ^(F1)fear the LORD your God, to walk in all His ways and ^(C2)love Him, and to serve the LORD your God with ^(C3)all your heart and with all your soul,

and to keep the LORD'S commandments and His statutes which I am commanding you today for your good?

"Behold, ^(C1)to the LORD your God belong heaven and the ^(F1)highest heavens, ^(C2)the earth and all that is in it.

"^(C1)Yet the LORD set His affection on your fathers, to love them, and He chose their ^(F1)descendants after them, you over all the other peoples, as it is this day.

"^(C1)So circumcise ^(F1)your heart, and do not ^(C2)stiffen your neck any longer.

"^(C1)For the LORD your God is the God of gods and the ^(C2)Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the awesome God, ^(C3)who does not show partiality, nor ^(C4)take a bribe.

"He executes justice for ^(C1)the orphan and the widow, and shows His love for the stranger by giving him food and clothing.

"^(C1)So show your love for the stranger, for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.

"You shall fear the LORD your God; you shall serve Him, and ^(C1)cling to Him, and ^(C2)you shall swear by His name.

"He is ^(C1)your glory and He is your God, who has done these great and awesome things for you which your eyes have seen.

"^(C1)Your fathers went down to Egypt seventy persons in all, ^(C2)and now the LORD your God has made you as numerous as the stars of heaven.
