“Love ye therefore the stranger: for ye were strangers in the land of Egypt.”
King James Version (KJV)
10:17 Regardeth not persons - Whether Jews or Gentiles, but deals justly and equally with all sorts of men; and as whosoever fears and obeys him shall be accepted, so all incorrigible transgressors shall be severely punished, and you no less than other people: therefore do not flatter yourselves as if God would bear with your sins because of his particular kindness to you or to your fathers.
10:18 He doth execute - That is, plead their cause, and give them right against their potent adversaries, and therefore he expects you should do so too.
10:20 To him shalt thou cleave - With firm confidence, true affection, and constant obedience.
10:21 Thy praise - The object and matter of thy praise, as #Exo 15:2|, whom thou shouldest ever praise.
Loue yee therefore the stranger: for yee were strangers in the land of Egypt.
