What God Requires
12 "And now, Israel, what does the Lord your God ask of you except to fear the Lord your God by walking in all His ways, to love Him, and to worship the Lord your God with all your heart and all your soul?
13
Keep the Lord's commands and statutes I am giving you today, for your own good.
14
The heavens, indeed the highest heavens, belong to the Lord your God, as does the earth and everything in it.
15
Yet the Lord was devoted to your fathers and loved them. He chose their descendants after them-[He chose] you out of all the peoples, as it is today.
17
For the Lord your God is the God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, mighty, and awesome God, showing no partiality and taking no bribe.
18
He executes justice for the fatherless and the widow, and loves the foreign resident, giving him food and clothing.
19
You also must love the foreigner, since you were foreigners in the land of Egypt.
20
You are to fear the Lord your God and worship Him. Remain faithful[b] to Him and take oaths in His name.
21
He is your praise and He is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome works your eyes have seen.
