Context of Deuteronomy 10:21

19So you must love the resident foreigner because you were foreigners in the land of Egypt. 20Revere the Lord your God, serve him, be loyal to him and take oaths only in his name. He is the one you should praise; he is your God, the one who has done these great and awesome things for you that you have seen. 22When your ancestors went down to Egypt, they numbered only seventy, but now the Lord your God has made you as numerous as the stars of the sky.
