Deuteronomy 10
10
1At that time Jehovah said unto me, Hew for thyself two tables of stone like the first, and come up unto me into the mountain, and make thee an ark of wood; 2and I will write on the tables the words that were on the first tables which thou didst break, and thou shalt lay them in the ark. 3And I made an ark of acacia-wood, and hewed two tables of stone like the first, and went up the mountain with the two tables in my hand. 4And he wrote on the tables, as the first writing, the ten words which Jehovah spoke unto you on the mountain, from the midst of the fire, on the day of the assembly, and Jehovah gave them unto me. 5And I turned and came down from the mountain, and put the tables in the ark which I had made; — and they are there, as Jehovah commanded me. 6(And the children of Israel took their journey from Beeroth-Bene-Jaakan to Moserah: there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Eleazar his son exercised the priesthood in his stead. 7From thence they journeyed unto Gudgodah; and from Gudgodah to Jotbathah, a land of water-brooks.) 8At that time Jehovah separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of Jehovah, to stand before Jehovah to do service unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day. 9Therefore Levi has no portion nor inheritance with his brethren; Jehovah is his inheritance, according as Jehovah thy God#GodHebrew: Elohim told him. 10But I stood upon the mountain according to the former days, forty days and forty nights; and Jehovah listened unto me also at that time: Jehovah would not destroy thee. 11And Jehovah said unto me, Rise up, take thy journey before the people, that they may enter in and possess the land, which I swore unto their fathers to give unto them.
12And now, Israel, what doth Jehovah thy God#GodHebrew: Elohim require of thee, but to fear Jehovah thy God#GodHebrew: Elohim to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve Jehovah thy God#GodHebrew: Elohim with all thy heart and with all thy soul, 13to keep the commandments of Jehovah, and his statutes, which I command thee this day, for thy good? 14Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens belong to Jehovah thy God#GodHebrew: Elohim the earth and all that is therein. 15Only, Jehovah took pleasure in thy fathers, to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you, out of all the peoples, as it is this day. 16Circumcise then the foreskin of your heart, and stiffen your neck no more. 17For Jehovah your God#GodHebrew: Elohim is the God#GodHebrew: Elohim of gods, and the Lord of lords, the great ·God#GodHebrew: El the mighty and the terrible, who regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward; 18who executeth the judgment of the fatherless and the widow, and loveth the stranger, to give him food and clothing. 19And ye shall love the stranger; for ye have been strangers in the land of Egypt. 20Thou shalt fear Jehovah thy God#GodHebrew: Elohim him thou shalt serve, and unto him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name. 21He is thy praise, and he is thy God#GodHebrew: Elohim who hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen. 22With seventy souls thy fathers went down into Egypt; and now Jehovah thy God#GodHebrew: Elohim hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.

The Second Tables of Stone
(Exodus 34.1-10)
1At that time the Lord said unto me, Hew thee two tables of stone like unto the first, and come up unto me into the mount, and make thee an ark of wood. 2And I will write on the tables the words that were in the first tables which thou brakest, and thou shalt put them in the ark. 3And 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. 4And he wrote on the tables, according to the first writing, the ten commandments, which the Lord spake 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. 5And 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.

Num 20.28; 33.38. And the children of Israel took their journey from Beer´oth of the children of Ja´akan to Mose´ra: there Aaron died, and there he was buried; and Ele-a´zar his son ministered in the priest's office in his stead. 7From thence they journeyed unto Gudgo´dah; and from Gudgo´dah to Jot´bath, a land of rivers of waters. 8#Num 3.5-8. At that time the Lord separated the tribe of Levi, to bear the ark of the covenant of the Lord, to stand before the Lord to minister unto him, and to bless in his name, unto this day. 9Wherefore Levi hath no part nor inheritance with his brethren; the Lord is his inheritance, according as the Lord thy God promised him.

Exod 34.28. And I stayed in the mount, according to the first time, forty days and forty nights; and the Lord hearkened unto me at that time also, and the Lord would not destroy thee. 11And the Lord said unto me, Arise, take thy journey before the people, that they may go in and possess the land, which I sware unto their fathers to give unto them.
What God Requires
12And now, Israel, what doth the Lord thy God require of thee, but to fear the Lord thy God, to walk in all his ways, and to love him, and to serve the Lord thy God with all thy heart and with all thy soul, 13to keep the commandments of the Lord, and his statutes, which I command thee this day for thy good? 14Behold, the heaven and the heaven of heavens is the Lord's thy God, the earth also, with all that therein is. 15Only the Lord had a delight in thy fathers to love them, and he chose their seed after them, even you above all people, as it is this day. 16Circumcise therefore the foreskin of your heart, and be no more stiffnecked. 17#Acts 10.34; Rom 2.11; Gal 2.6; Eph 6.9. For the Lord your God is God of gods, and Lord of lords, a great God, a mighty, and a terrible, which regardeth not persons, nor taketh reward: 18he doth execute the judgment of the fatherless and widow, and loveth the stranger, in giving him food and raiment. 19Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt. 20Thou shalt fear the Lord thy God; him shalt thou serve, and to him shalt thou cleave, and swear by his name. 21He is thy praise, and he is thy God, that hath done for thee these great and terrible things, which thine eyes have seen. 22#Gen 46.27; Gen 15.5; 22.17. Thy fathers went down into Egypt with threescore and ten persons; and now the Lord thy God hath made thee as the stars of heaven for multitude.
