To destroy at thy coming very great nations, and stronger than thou art: and to bring thee in: and give thee their land for a possession, as thou seest at this present day.
Hear, O Israel: Thou shalt go over the Jordan this day, to possess nations very great, and stronger than thyself, cities great, and walled up to the sky:
For it is not for thy justices, and the uprightness of thy heart that thou shalt go in to possess their lands. But because they have done wickedly, they are destroyed at thy coming in: and that the Lord might accomplish his word, which he promised by oath to thy fathers Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
Observe all things which this day I command thee. I myself will drive out before thy face the Amorrhite, and the Chanaanite, and the Hethite, and the Pherezite, and the Hevite, and the Jebusite.
