Deuteronomy 7:2-5
2and when the Lord your God turns them over to you and you 1defeat them, 2you shall 3utterly destroy them. 4You shall not make a covenant with them 5nor be gracious to them.
3Furthermore, 6you shall not intermarry with them: you shall not give your 7daughters to 8their sons, nor shall you take 9their daughters for your 10sons.
4For 11they will turn your 12sons away from 13following Me, and they will serve other gods; then the anger of the Lord will be kindled against you and 14He will quickly destroy you.
5But this is what you shall do to them: 15you shall tear down their altars, smash their memorial stones, cut their 16Asherim to pieces, and burn their carved images in the fire.
