14
Behold, to the LORD your God belong heaven and the heaven of heavens, the earth with all that is in it;
15
yet the LORD set his heart in love upon your fathers and chose their descendants after them, you above all peoples, as at this day.
16
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no longer stubborn.
17
For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the terrible God, who is not partial and takes no bribe.
18
He executes justice for the fatherless and the widow, and loves the sojourner, giving him food and clothing.
