Exodus 23:27-33
27I will sendH7971 my fearH367 beforeH6440 thee, and will destroyH2000 all the peopleH5971 to whom thou shalt comeH935, and I will makeH5414 all thine enemiesH341 turn their backsH6203 unto thee.1
28And I will sendH7971 hornetsH6880 beforeH6440 thee, which shall drive outH1644 the HiviteH2340, the CanaaniteH3669, and the HittiteH2850, from beforeH6440 thee.
29I will not drive them outH1644 from beforeH6440 thee in oneH259 yearH8141; lest the landH776 become desolateH8077, and the beastH2416 of the fieldH7704 multiplyH7227 against thee.
30By littleH4592 and littleH4592 I will drive them outH1644 from beforeH6440 thee, until thou be increasedH6509, and inheritH5157 the landH776.
31And I will setH7896 thy boundsH1366 from the RedH5488 seaH3220 even unto the seaH3220 of the PhilistinesH6430, and from the desertH4057 unto the riverH5104: for I will deliverH5414 the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776 into your handH3027; and thou shalt drive them outH1644 beforeH6440 thee.
32Thou shalt makeH3772 no covenantH1285 with them, nor with their godsH430.
33They shall not dwellH3427 in thy landH776, lest they make thee sinH2398 against me: for if thou serveH5647 their godsH430, it will surely be a snareH4170 unto thee.
