Exodus 23 — Context

20

See, I am sending an angel before you, to keep you on your way and to be your guide into the place which I have made ready for you.

Give attention to him and give ear to his voice; do not go against him; for your wrongdoing will not be overlooked by him, because my name is in him.

22

But if you truly give ear to his voice, and do whatever I say, then I will be against those who are against you, fighting those who are fighting you.

23

And my angel will go before you, guiding you into the land of the Amorite and the Hittite and the Perizzite and the Canaanite and the Hivite and the Jebusite, and they will be cut off by my hand.

24

Do not go down on your faces and give worship to their gods, or do as they do; but overcome them completely, and let their pillars be broken down.

25

And give worship to the Lord your God, who will send his blessing on your bread and on your water; and I will take all disease away from among you.

26

All your animals will give birth without loss, not one will be without young in all your land; I will give you a full measure of life.
