Exodus 23:24-33
241You shall not worship their gods, nor serve them, nor do according to their deeds; 2but you shall utterly overthrow them and break their 3sacred pillars in pieces.
254But you shall serve the Lord your God, 5and He will bless your bread and your water; and 6I will remove sickness from your midst.
26There shall be no one miscarrying or 7barren in your land; 8I will fulfill the number of your days.
27I will 9send My terror ahead of you, and 10throw into confusion all the people among whom you come, and I will 11make all your enemies turn their backs to you.
28I will send 12hornets ahead of you so that they will 13drive out the Hivites, the Canaanites, and the Hittites before you.
2914I will not drive them out before you in a single year, that the land may not become desolate and the beasts of the field become too numerous for you.
30I will drive them out before you 15little by little, until you become fruitful and take possession of the land.
3116I will fix your boundary from the 17Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the River Euphrates; 18for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you will 19drive them out before you.
3220You shall 21make no covenant with them 22or with their gods.
3323They shall not live in your land, because they will make you sin against Me; for if you serve their gods, 24it will surely be a snare to you.”
