¹¹ “Observe what I command you this day. Behold, ^(A)I will drive out before you the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

² I will send an ^(A)angel before you, ^(B)and I will drive out the Canaanites, the Amorites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites.

¹⁷ and I promise that ^(A)I will bring you up out of the affliction of Egypt to the land of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Amorites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, a land ^(B)flowing with milk and honey.”’

A Chosen People

7 “When the ^(B)Lord your God brings you into the land that you are entering to take possession of it, and clears away many nations before you, ^(C)the Hittites, the Girgashites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations ^(D)more numerous and mightier than you,

³ Hear therefore, O Israel, and be careful to do them, that it may go well with you, and that you may multiply greatly, ^(A)as the Lord, the God of your fathers, has promised you, in a land flowing with milk and honey.
