²⁴Never worship or serve their gods or follow their practices. Instead, you must destroy their gods and crush their sacred stones. ²⁵You must serve the Lord your God, and he will bless your food and water. I will take away all sickness from among you. ²⁶No woman in your land will miscarry or be unable to have children. I will let you live a normal life span.

²⁷“I will send my terror ahead of you and throw any nation you meet into a panic. I will make all your enemies flee from you. ²⁸I will spread panic ahead of you to force the Hivites, Canaanites, and Hittites out of your way. ²⁹I will not force them out of your way in one year. Otherwise, the land would be deserted, and wild animals would take over. ³⁰Little by little I will force them out of your way until you have increased enough in number to take possession of the land.

³¹“I will establish your borders from the Red Sea to the Mediterranean Sea and from the Sinai Desert to the Euphrates River. I will put the people living in the land under your control, and you will force them out of your way. ³²Never make a treaty with them and their gods. ³³Never let them live in your land, or they will make you sin against me and trap you into serving their gods.”
