²⁶ Thus you are to be holy to Me, for I the Lord am holy; and I ^(A)have set you apart from the peoples to be Mine.

⁶ For you are ^(A)a holy people to the Lord your God; the Lord your God has chosen you to be ^(B)a people for His ^[a]own possession out of all the peoples who are on the face of the ^[b]earth.

Dedicated Service

12 Therefore ^(A)I urge you, brethren, by the mercies of God, to ^(B)present your bodies a living and holy sacrifice, ^[a]acceptable to God, which is your ^[b]spiritual service of worship.
