Instructions for the Conquest of Canaan

50 Now the Lord spoke to Moses in the plains of Moab by the Jordan, across from Jericho, saying,

51 “Speak to the children of Israel, and say to them: ^a‘When you have crossed the Jordan into the land of Canaan,

52 ^athen you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, destroy all their engraved stones, destroy all their molded images, and demolish all their¹ high places;

53 you shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land and dwell in it, for I have given you the land to ^apossess.

54 And ^ayou shall divide the land by lot as an inheritance among your families; to the larger you shall give a larger inheritance, and to the smaller you shall give a smaller inheritance; there everyone’s inheritance shall be whatever falls to him by lot. You shall inherit according to the tribes of your fathers.

55 But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it shall be that those whom you let remain shall be ^airritants in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and they shall harass you in the land where you dwell.
