29 But I will not force all of them out of your land quickly. I will not do this in only one year. The land will be empty if I force the people out too fast. Then all the wild animals would increase and control the land. And they would be much trouble for you. 30 So I will force them out of your land very slowly. I will do this as you grow and eventually take the land to be your own.

31 “I will give you all the land from the Red Sea[a] to the Mediterranean Sea,[b] and from the desert of Sinai to the Euphrates River. I will let you defeat the people living there and force them all to leave.
