A Chosen People
1 “When the Lord your God brings you into the land which you go to apossess, and has cast out many bnations before you, cthe Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than you,
2 and when the Lord your God delivers athem over to you, you shall conquer them and utterly destroy them. bYou shall make no covenant with them nor show mercy to them.
3 aNor shall you make marriages with them. You shall not give your daughter to their son, nor take their daughter for your son.
4 For they will turn your sons away from following Me, to serve other gods; aso the anger of the Lord will be aroused against you and destroy you suddenly.
