18 He executes justice for the fatherless and widow, and He loves the foreigner, giving him food and clothing.

19 So you also must love the foreigner, since you yourselves were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

20 You are to fear the LORD your God and serve Him. Hold fast to Him and take your oaths in His name.

21 He is your praise and He is your God, who has done for you these great and awesome wonders that your eyes have seen.
