What does Jehovah rightly expect of His worshippers?

In response to the title question, so far as I can ascertain, worship, proselytizing, living as he advises, and living in accordance with Biblical scripture.

In response to the question in the OP, nothing, as I don't worship Jehovah.

If you're talking about this G-d of the Bible then I believe He expects non-Jews to observe the 7 Noachide Laws and Jews to observe the Torah.

I thus try doing as needed.

What do you do to try to live up to them?

I see God want us to know and to Love God.

We are asked to rise above our animal nature and to serve each other in love and compassion for all people, all creatures and our planet.

To try to live up to that calling, is to try to be the best person we can. When we fall short, admit we are wrong and try to do better each day.

It is the greatest challenge of life, that is to find out that to know and Love God, we have to find it in our own selves.

Regards Tony

Matthew22[35] And one of them, a lawyer, asked him a question, to test him.
[36] "Teacher, which is the great commandment in the law?"
[37] And he said to him, "You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind.
[38] This is the great and first commandment.
[39] And a second is like it, You shall love your neighbor as yourself.
[40] On these two commandments depend all the law and the prophets."

@Tony Bristow-Stagg , I don't know what's so funny about this?

You can't keep these commandments without the holy Spirit.

I feel no need to worship the Great unseen God outside myself. I rather transform my bad habits

In short:
Love All, Serve All
Hurt Never, Help Ever

Jehovah is just a mental puppet. There's nothing there that I don't already know, so there really no need to live up to it.
