27My terror I send before thee, and I have put to death all the people among whom thou comest, and I have given the neck of all thine enemies unto thee.
28`And I have sent the hornet before thee, and it hath cast out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee;
29I cast them not out from before thee in one year, lest the land be a desolation, and the beast of the field hath multiplied against thee;
30little [by] little I cast them out from before thee, till thou art fruitful, and hast inherited the land.
31`And I have set thy border from the Red Sea, even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness unto the River: for I give into your hand the inhabitants of the land, and thou hast cast them out from before thee;
32thou dost not make a covenant with them, and with their gods;
33they do not dwell in thy land, lest they cause thee to sin against Me when thou servest their gods, when it becometh a snare to thee.`
