What God Requires: Fear, Love, and Justice

12

`And now, Israel, what is Jehovah thy God asking from thee, except to fear Jehovah thy God, to walk in all His ways, and to love Him, and to serve Jehovah thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul,

13

to keep the commands of Jehovah, and His statutes which I am commanding thee to-day, for good to thee?

14

`Lo, to Jehovah thy God are the heavens and the heavens of the heavens, the earth and all that is in it;

15

only in thy fathers hath Jehovah delighted--to love them, and He doth fix on their seed after them--on you, out of all the peoples as at this day;

16

and ye have circumcised the foreskin of your heart, and your neck ye do not harden any more;

17

for Jehovah your God--He is God of the gods, and Lord of the lords; God, the great, the mighty, and the fearful; who accepteth not persons, nor taketh a bribe;

18

He is doing the judgment of fatherless and widow, and loving the sojourner, to give to him bread and raiment.

19

`And ye have loved the sojourner, for sojourners ye were in the land of Egypt.

20

`Jehovah thy God thou dost fear, Him thou dost serve, and to Him thou dost cleave, and by His name thou dost swear.

21

He is thy praise, and He is thy God, who hath done with thee these great and fearful things which thine eyes have seen:

22

with seventy persons did thy fathers go down to Egypt, and now hath Jehovah thy God made thee as stars of the heavens for multitude.
