Deuteronomy 7:2-11

2and he delivers them over to you and you attack them, you must utterly annihilate them. Make no treaty with them and show them no mercy!

3You must not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons,

4for they will turn your sons away from me to worship other gods. Then the anger of the Lord will erupt against you and he will quickly destroy you.

5Instead, this is what you must do to them: You must tear down their altars, shatter their sacred pillars, cut down their sacred Asherah poles, and burn up their idols.

6For you are a people holy to the Lord your God. He has chosen you to be his people, prized above all others on the face of the earth.

7It is not because you were more numerous than all the other peoples that the Lord favored and chose you – for in fact you were the least numerous of all peoples.

8Rather it is because of his love for you and his faithfulness to the promise he solemnly vowed to your ancestors that the Lord brought you out with great power, redeeming you from the place of slavery, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

9So realize that the Lord your God is the true God, the faithful God who keeps covenant faithfully with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations,

10but who pays back those who hate him as they deserve and destroys them. He will not ignore those who hate him but will repay them as they deserve!

11So keep the commandments, statutes, and ordinances that I today am commanding you to do.
