Mark 12:31-33

Easy-to-Read Version

³¹ The second most important command is this: ‘Love your neighbor^[a] the same as you love yourself.’^[b] These two commands are the most important.”

³² The man answered, “That was a good answer, Teacher. You are right in saying that God is the only Lord and that there is no other God. ³³ And you must love God with all your heart, all your mind, and all your strength. And you must love others the same as you love yourself. These commands are more important than all the animals and sacrifices we offer to God.”
