6 For you are a holy people to Jehovah your God.+ It is you Jehovah your God has chosen to become his people, a special property, out of all the peoples that are on the surface of the ground.+

9 Jehovah will establish you as a holy people to himself,+ just as he swore to you,+ because you continue to keep the commandments+ of Jehovah* your God, and you have walked in his ways.
