Deuteronomy 10:18

Poverty and the vulnerableThe stranger and outcastJusticeGod's love

16 Circumcise your hearts, therefore, and stiffen your necks no more.

17 For the LORD your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great, mighty, and awesome God, showing no partiality and accepting no bribe.

He executes justice for the fatherless and widow, and He loves the foreigner, giving him food and clothing.

19 So you also must love the foreigner, since you yourselves were foreigners in the land of Egypt.

20 You are to fear the LORD your God and serve Him. Hold fast to Him and take your oaths in His name.
