Deuteronomy 10:13-15

New Catholic Bible

¹³ and to observe the commandments and the statutes that I am giving you today for your own good. ¹⁴ Indeed the heavens and the highest heavens^[a] belong to the Lord, your God, as well as the earth and all that is in it, ¹⁵ yet the Lord’s sole delight was in your fathers. He loved them so much that he chose you, their descendants, above every other nation, which is still true today.
