Deuteronomy 7 — Context

18

you shall not be afraid of them: you shall well remember what Yahweh your God did to Pharaoh, and to all Egypt;

19

the great trials which your eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which Yahweh your God brought you out: so shall Yahweh your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.

20

Moreover Yahweh your God will send the hornet among them, until those who are left, and hide themselves, perish from before you.

21

You shall not be scared of them; for Yahweh your God is in the midst of you, a great and awesome God.

22

Yahweh your God will cast out those nations before you by little and little: you may not consume them at once, lest the animals of the field increase on you.

23

But Yahweh your God will deliver them up before you, and will confuse them with a great confusion, until they be destroyed.

24

He will deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name to perish from under the sky: no man shall be able to stand before you, until you have destroyed them.
