Deuteronomy 7:17-24

17“If you say to yourself, ‘These nations are greater than I; how can I drive them out?’

18do not be afraid of them. Be sure to remember what the Lord your God did to Pharaoh and all Egypt:

19the great trials that you saw, the signs and wonders, the strong hand and outstretched arm, by which the Lord your God brought you out. The Lord your God will do the same to all the peoples you fear.

20The Lord your God will also send hornets against them until all the survivors and those hiding from you perish.

21Don’t be terrified of them, for the Lord your God, a great and awesome God, is among you.

22The Lord your God will drive out these nations before you little by little. You will not be able to destroy them all at once; otherwise, the wild animals will become too numerous for you.

23The Lord your God will give them over to you and throw them into great confusion until they are destroyed.

24He will hand their kings over to you, and you will wipe out their names under heaven. No one will be able to stand against you; you will annihilate them.
