¹⁰ You shall therefore obey the voice of Yahweh your God, and do his commandments and his statutes, which I command you this day.

⁷ but your eyes have seen all the great work of Yahweh which he did.

⁸ Therefore shall you keep all the commandment which I command you this day, that you may be strong, and go in and possess the land, where you go over to possess it;

¹ Therefore you shall love Yahweh your God, and keep his charge, and his statutes, and his ordinances, and his commandments, always.

¹ Forasmuch then as Christ suffered for us in the flesh, arm yourselves also with the same mind; for he who has suffered in the flesh has ceased from sin;

² that you no longer should live the rest of your time in the flesh for the lusts of men, but for the will of God.

³ For we have spent enough of our past time doing the desire of the Gentiles, and having walked in lewdness, lusts, drunken binges, orgies, carousings, and abominable idolatries.

¹⁴ as children of obedience, not conforming yourselves according to your former lusts as in your ignorance,

¹⁵ but just as he who called you is holy, you yourselves also be holy in all of your behavior;

¹⁶ because it is written, "You shall be holy; for I am holy."

¹⁷ This I say therefore, and testify in the Lord, that you no longer walk as the rest of the Gentiles also walk, in the futility of their mind,

¹⁸ being darkened in their understanding, alienated from the life of God, because of the ignorance that is in them, because of the hardening of their hearts;

¹⁹ who having become callous gave themselves up to lust, to work all uncleanness with greediness.

²⁰ But you did not learn Christ that way;

²¹ if indeed you heard him, and were taught in him, even as truth is in Jesus:

²² that you put away, as concerning your former way of life, the old man, that grows corrupt after the lusts of deceit;

²³ and that you be renewed in the spirit of your mind,

²⁴ and put on the new man, who in the likeness of God has been created in righteousness and holiness of truth.

⁴⁸ Therefore you shall be perfect, just as your Father in heaven is perfect.

⁸ He has shown you, O man, what is good. What does Yahweh require of you, but to act justly, To love mercy, and to walk humbly with your God?

⁵ Indeed all the nations may walk in the name of their gods; But we will walk in the name of Yahweh our God forever and ever.

¹² Now, Israel, what does Yahweh your God require of you, but to fear Yahweh your God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Yahweh your God with all your heart and with all your soul,

¹³ to keep the commandments of Yahweh, and his statutes, which I command you this day for your good?

² "Speak to all the congregation of the children of Israel, and tell them, 'You shall be holy; for I Yahweh your God am holy.
