24 you shall (A)not bow down to their gods nor serve them, (B)nor do as they do, but (C)you shall utterly overthrow them and break their (D)pillars in pieces. 25 You (E)shall serve the Lord your God, and (F)he[a] will bless your bread and your water, and (G)I will take sickness away from among you. 26 (H)None shall miscarry or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the (I)number of your days. 27 I will send (J)my terror before you and will throw into (K)confusion all the people against whom you shall come, and I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you. 28 And (L)I will send hornets[b] before you, which shall drive out the Hivites, the Canaanites, and the Hittites from before you. 29 (M)I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate and the wild beasts multiply against you.
