and when Yahweh your God gives them over before you and you strike them down, (A)then you shall devote them to destruction. (B)You shall cut no covenant with them (C)and show no favor to them. Furthermore, (D)you shall not intermarry with them; you shall not give your [a]daughters to [b]their sons, nor shall you take [c]their daughters for your [d]sons. For [e]they will turn your [f]sons away from [g]following Me, and they will serve other gods; then the anger of Yahweh will be kindled against you, and (E)He will quickly destroy you. But thus you shall do to them: (F)you shall tear down their altars and shatter their sacred pillars and cut their [h]Asherim in pieces and burn their graven images with fire.
