Exodus 23:20-25

20“BeholdH2009, I am going to sendH7971 1an angelH4397 beforeH6440 you to guardH8104 you along the wayH1870 and 2to bringH935 you into the placeH4725 whichH834 I have preparedH3559.

21BeH8104 attentiveH8104 to him and obeyH8085 his voiceH6963; 3do not be rebelliousH4784 toward him, for he will not pardonH5375 your rebellionH6588, sinceH3588 4My nameH8034 is in him.

22But ifH518 you trulyH8085 obeyH8085 his voiceH6963 and doH6213 allH3605 that I sayH1696, then 5I will be an enemyH340 to your enemiesH340 and an adversaryH6696 to your adversariesH6887.

23 6For My angelH4397 will goH1980 beforeH6440 you and bringH935 you into the land of the AmoritesH567, the HittitesH2850, the PerizzitesH6522, the CanaanitesH3669, the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983; and I will completelyH3582 destroyH3582 them.

24 7You shall not worshipH2331 their godsH430, norH3808 serveH5647 them, norH3808 doH6213 according to their deedsH4639; 8but you shall utterlyH2040 overthrowH2040 them and breakH7665 their 9memorialH4676 stonesH4676 inH7665 piecesH7665.

25 10And you shall serveH5647 the LordH3068 your GodH430, 11and He will blessH1288 your breadH3899 and your waterH4325; and 12I will removeH5493 sicknessH4245 from your midstH7130.
