Deuteronomy 7:1-5
1“1WhenH3588 the LordH3068 your GodH430 bringsH935 you into the landH776 whereH834H8033 you are enteringH935 to possessH3423 it, and clearsH5394 awayH5394 manyH7227 nationsH1471 beforeH4480H6440 you, the HittitesH2850 and the GirgashitesH1622 and the AmoritesH567 and the CanaanitesH3669 and the PerizzitesH6522 and the HivitesH2340 and the JebusitesH2983, 2sevenH7651 nationsH1471 greaterH7227 and strongerH6099 thanH4480 you,
2and when the LordH3068 your GodH430 deliversH5414 them beforeH6440 you and you 3defeatH5221 them, 4then you shall 5utterlyH2763 destroyH2763 them. 6You shall makeH3772 noH3808 covenantH1285 with them 7and showH2603 noH3808 favorH2603 to them.
3Furthermore, 8you shall not intermarryH2859 with them; you shall not giveH5414 your 9daughtersH1323 to 10their sonsH1121, norH3808 shall you takeH3947 11their daughtersH1323 for your 12sonsH1121.
4For 13they will turnH5493 your 14sonsH1121 awayH5493 from 15followingH310 Me to serveH5647 otherH312 godsH430; then the angerH639 of the LordH3068 will be kindledH2734 against you and 16He will quicklyH4118 destroyH8045 you.
5But thusH3541 you shall doH6213 to them: 17you shall tearH5422 downH5422 their altarsH4196, and smashH7665 their sacred pillarsH4676, and hewH1438 downH1438 their 18AsherimH842, and burnH8313 their gravenH6456 imagesH6456 with fireH784.
