Circumcise Your Heart

¹² “^(A)So now, Israel, what does Yahweh your God ask from you, but to ^[a]fear Yahweh your God, to walk in all His ways and ^(B)love Him, and to serve Yahweh your God with ^(C)all your heart and with all your soul, ¹³ and to keep the commandments of Yahweh and His statutes which I am commanding you today for your good? ¹⁴ Behold, ^(D)to Yahweh your God belong heaven and the ^[b]highest heavens, ^(E)the earth and all that is in it. ^15 (F)Yet on your fathers did Yahweh set His affection to love them, and He chose their seed after them, even you above all peoples, as it is this day. ^16 (G)So circumcise ^[c]your heart, and ^(H)stiffen your neck no longer. ^17 (I)For Yahweh your God is the God of gods and the ^(J)Lord of lords, the great, the mighty, and the fearsome God ^(K)who does not show partiality nor ^(L)take a bribe. ¹⁸ He executes justice for ^(M)the orphan and the widow, and shows love for the sojourner by giving him food and clothing. ^19 (N)So show love for the sojourner, for you were sojourners in the land of Egypt. ²⁰ Yahweh your God you shall fear; Him you shall serve, and to Him you shall ^(O)cling, and by His name ^(P)you shall swear. ²¹ He is ^(Q)your praise, and He is your God, who has done these great and fearsome things for you which your eyes have seen. ^22 (R)Your fathers went down to Egypt seventy persons in all, ^(S)and now Yahweh your God has made you as numerous as the stars of heaven.
