6Therefore be you very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that you not turn aside therefrom to the right hand or to the left;
7that you not come among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to swear [by them], neither serve them, nor bow down yourselves to them;
8but cleave to Yahweh your God, as you have done to this day.
9For Yahweh has driven out from before you great nations and strong: but as for you, no man has stood before you to this day.
10One man of you shall chase a thousand; for Yahweh your God, he it is who fights for you, as he spoke to you.
11Take good heed therefore to yourselves, that you love Yahweh your God.
12Else if you do at all go back, and cleave to the remnant of these nations, even these who remain among you, and make marriages with them, and go in to them, and they to you;
