Exodus 23:29-31
International Standard Version
29 I won’t drive them out before you in a single year, so that the land does not become desolate and so that wild animals do not overrun you. 30 I’ll drive them out ahead of you little by little until you increase in numbers[a] and possess the land.
31 “I’ll set your borders from the Reed[b] Sea to the Sea of the Philistines,[c] and from the desert to the Euphrates[d] River, bringing[e] the inhabitants of the land under your control,[f] and you are to drive them out ahead of you.
