15. The Lord set his heart on your ancestors and loved them. Because of this, today he chooses you, their descendants, out of all the people of the world.
16. So circumcise your uncircumcised hearts, and don’t be impossible to deal with any longer.
17. The Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, powerful, and awe-inspiring God. He never plays favorites and never takes a bribe.
18. He makes sure orphans and widows receive justice. He loves foreigners and gives them food and clothes.
19. So you should love foreigners, because you were foreigners living in Egypt.
20. Fear the Lord your God, worship him, be loyal to him, and take your oaths in his name.
