27 “I will cause the people ahead of you to feel terror[a] and will throw into confusion(A) all the nations you come to. I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you in retreat.[b] 28 I will send hornets[c](B) in front of you, and they will drive the Hivites, Canaanites, and Hethites away from you. 29 I will not drive them out ahead of you in a single year; otherwise, the land would become desolate, and wild animals would multiply against you.
