Deuteronomy 7:16-26
16And thou shalt consumeH398 all the peoplesH5971 that Jehovah thy GodH430 shall deliver unto thee; thine eyeH5869 shall not pityH2347 them: neither shalt thou serveH5647 their godsH430; for that will be a snareH4170 unto thee.
17If thou shalt sayH559 in thy heartH3824, These nationsH1471 are moreH4480 than I; howH349 can I dispossessH3423 them? 18thou shalt not be afraidH3372 of them: thou shalt well rememberH2142 what Jehovah thy GodH430 did unto PharaohH6547, and unto all EgyptH4714; 19the greatH1419 trials which thine eyesH5869 sawH7200, and the signsH226, and the wondersH4159, and the mightyH2389 handH3027, and the outstretchedH5186 armH2220, whereby Jehovah thy GodH430 broughtH3318 thee out: soH3651 shall Jehovah thy GodH430 do unto all the peoplesH5971 of whom thou art afraidH3373. 20Moreover Jehovah thy GodH430 will sendH7971 the hornetH6880 among them, until they that are leftH7604, and hideH5641 themselves, perishH6 from before thee. 21Thou shalt not be affrighted at them; for Jehovah thy GodH430 is in the midstH7130 of thee, a greatH1419 GodH430 and a terrible. 22And Jehovah thy GodH430 will cast out those nationsH1471 before thee by littleH4592 and littleH4592: thou mayest not consume them at once, lestH6435 the beasts of the fieldH7704 increaseH7235 upon thee. 23But Jehovah thy GodH430 will deliver them up before thee, and will discomfit them with a greatH1419 discomfiture, until they be destroyedH8045. 24And he will deliver their kingsH4428 into thy handH3027, and thou shalt makeH5414 their nameH8034 to perishH6 from under heavenH8064: there shall no manH376 be able to standH3320 before thee, until thou have destroyedH8045 them. 25The graven images of their godsH430 shall ye burnH8313 with fireH784: thou shalt not covetH2530 the silverH3701 or the goldH2091 that is on them, nor takeH3947 it unto thee, lestH6435 thou be snared therein; for it is an abominationH8441 to Jehovah thy GodH430. 26And thou shalt not bringH935 an abominationH8441 into thy houseH1004, and becomeH1961 a devoted thingH8441 like unto it: thou shalt utterly detestH8262 it, and thou shalt utterly abhorH8581 it; for it is a devoted thingH8441.
