17. The Lord your God is the greatest God of all. He is the greatest Lord of all. He is the great God. He is mighty and wonderful. He treats everyone the same. He doesn't accept any money from those who want special favors.
18. He stands up for widows and for children whose fathers have died. He loves outsiders. He gives them food and clothes.
