- You must not covet your neighbor’s house. You must not covet your neighbor’s wife, male or female servant, ox or donkey, or anything else that belongs to your neighbor.
- For we will be counted as righteous when we obey all the commands the Lord our God has given us.
- So obey the commands of the Lord your God by walking in his ways and fearing him.
- God detests the prayers
of a person who ignores the law. - In fact, according to the law of Moses, nearly everything was purified with blood. For without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness.
- I take joy in doing your will, my God,
for your instructions are written on my heart. - And the Lord our God commanded us to obey all these decrees and to fear him so he can continue to bless us and preserve our lives, as he has done to this day.
