Deuteronomy 7:1-2

Contemporary English Version

Force the Other Nations Out of the Land

(Exodus 34.11-16)

Moses said:

7 ^(A) People of Israel, the Lord your God will help you take the land of the Hittites, the Girgashites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites. These seven nations have more people and are stronger than Israel, but when you attack them, ² the Lord will force them out of the land. Then you must destroy them without mercy. Don't make any peace treaties with them,
