Devarim 10:13 In-Context

11 And Hashem said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the people, that they may go in and possess ha’aretz, which I swore unto their avot to give unto them.

12 And now, Yisroel, what doth Hashem Eloheicha require of thee, but to fear Hashem Eloheicha, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve Hashem Eloheicha with all thy lev and with all thy nefesh,

13 To be shomer over the mitzvot Hashem, and His chukkot, which I command thee today for thy good?

14 Behold, the Shomayim and Shomei HaShomayim (the Highest Heaven) belongs to Hashem Eloheicha; Ha’Aretz also, with all that therein is.

15 Yet Hashem had a delight in Avoteicha to love them, and He chose their zera after them, even you above kol ha’amim, as it is yom hazeh.
