22 But if you truly obey his voice and do all that I say, then (A)I will be an enemy to your enemies and an adversary to your adversaries. 23 (B)For My angel will go before you and bring you into the land of the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Canaanites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites; and I will completely destroy them. 24 (C)You shall not worship their gods, nor serve them, nor do according to their deeds; (D)but you shall utterly overthrow them and break their (E)memorial stones in pieces. 25 (F)And you shall serve the Lord your God, [a]and He will bless your bread and your water; and (G)I will remove sickness from your midst. 26 There will be no one miscarrying or (H)unable to have children in your land; (I)I will fulfill the number of your days. 27 I will (J)send My terror ahead of you, and (K)throw into confusion all the people among whom you come, and I will (L)make all your enemies turn their backs to you. 28 And I will send (M)hornets ahead of you so that they will (N)drive out the Hivites, the Canaanites, and the Hittites from you. 29 (O)I will not drive them out from you in a single year, so that the land will not become desolate and the animals of the field become too numerous for you. 30 I will drive them out from you (P)little by little, until you become fruitful and take possession of the land. 31 (Q)I will set your boundary from the [b]Red Sea to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the Euphrates River; (R)for I will hand over the inhabitants of the land to you, and you will (S)drive them out from you. 32 (T)You shall [c]make no covenant with them (U)or with their gods. 33 (V)They shall not live in your land, otherwise they will make you sin against Me; for if you serve their gods, (W)it is certain to be a snare to you.”
