< Deuteronomy 10 >

1 At that time the Lord said to me, Hew for yourself two stone tables as the first, and come up to me into the mountain, and you shall make for yourself an ark of wood.
At that time the LORD said unto me, Hew you two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto me into the mount, and make you an ark of wood.
2 And you shall write upon the tables the words which were on the first tables which you did break, and you shall put them into the ark.
And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first tables which you brake, and you shall put them in the ark.
3 So I made an ark of boards of incorruptible wood, and I hewed tables of stone like the first, and I went up to the mountain, and the two tables were in my hand.
And I made an ark of shittim wood, and hewed two tables of stone like unto the first, and went up into the mount, having the two tables in mine hand.
4 And he wrote upon the tables according to the first writing the ten commandments, which the Lord spoke to you in the mountain out of the midst of the fire, and the Lord gave them to me.
And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the LORD spoke unto you in the mount out of the midst of the fire in the day of the assembly: and the LORD gave them unto me.

And I turned myself and came down from the mount, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; and there they be, as the LORD commanded me.

And the LORD said unto me, Arise, take your journey before the people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give unto them.

15 Only the Lord chose your fathers to love them, and he chose out their seed after them, [even] you, beyond all nations, as at this day.
Only the LORD had a delight in your fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all people, as it is this day.
16 Therefore you shall circumcise the hardness of your heart, and you shall not harden your neck.
Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stubborn.
17 For the Lord your God, he [is] God of gods, and the Lord of lords, the great, and strong, and terrible God, who does not accept persons, nor will he by any means accept a bribe:

19 And you shall love the stranger; for you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
Love all of you therefore the stranger: for all of you were strangers in the land of Egypt.
20 You shall fear the Lord your God, and serve him, and shall cleave to him, and shall swear by his name.
You shall fear the LORD your God; him shall you serve, and to him shall you cleave, and swear by his name.
21 He [is] your boast, and he [is] your God, who has wrought in the midst of you these great and glorious things, which your eyes have seen.
He is your praise, and he is your God, that has done for you these great and terrible things, which your eyes have seen.
22 With seventy souls your fathers went down into Egypt; but the Lord your God has made you as the stars of heaven in multitude.
Your fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the LORD your God has made you as the stars of heaven for multitude.
