Deuteronomy 7:17-22

English Standard Version

¹⁷“If you say in your heart, ‘These nations are greater than I. How can I dispossess them?’ ¹⁸^(A)you shall not be afraid of them but you shall ^(B)remember what the Lord your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt, ¹⁹the great trials that your eyes saw, ^(C)the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which the Lord your God brought you out. So will the Lord your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid. ²⁰Moreover, ^(D)the Lord your God will send hornets among them, until those who are left and hide themselves from you are destroyed. ²¹You shall not be in dread of them, for the Lord your God is ^(E)in your midst, ^(F)a great and awesome God. ²²^(G)The Lord your God will clear away these nations before you little by little. You may not make an end of them at once,^[a] lest the wild beasts grow too numerous for you.
