God’s Word Translation
Deuteronomy 7:1-5
1The Lord your God will bring you to the land you’re about to enter and take possession of. He will force many nations out of your way: the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites—seven nations larger and more powerful than you.
2When the Lord your God gives them to you and you defeat them, destroy every one of them because they have been claimed by the Lord. Don’t make any treaties with them or show them any mercy.
3Never marry any of them. Never let your daughters marry their sons or your sons marry their daughters.
4These people will turn your children away from me to worship other gods. Then the Lord will get very angry with you and will quickly destroy you.
5But this is what you must do to these people: Tear down their altars, smash their sacred stones, cut down their poles dedicated to the goddess Asherah, and burn their idols.
