“Behold, I send an angel before you, to keep you by the way, and to bring you into the place which I have prepared.

But if you indeed listen to his voice, and do all that I speak, then I will be an enemy to your enemies, and an adversary to your adversaries.

You shall not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor follow their practices, but you shall utterly overthrow them and demolish their pillars.
25 BOEIPA na Pathen taengah tho na thueng daengah ni na buh neh na tui khaw a yoethen vetih na khui lamkah tlohtat te kang khoe eh.
You shall serve the LORD your God, and he will bless your bread and your water, and I will take sickness away from amongst you.
26 Na khohmuen ah thangyah neh caya khaw om pawt vetih na khohnin kah a tarhing te ka cup sak ni.
No one will miscarry or be barren in your land. I will fulfil the number of your days.

I will send my terror before you, and will confuse all the people to whom you come, and I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you.

I will send the hornet before you, which will drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before you.

I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate, and the animals of the field multiply against you.

Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased and inherit the land.
31 Na khorhi te carhaek tuipuei lamloh Philisti tuipuei duela, khosoek lamloh tuiva duela kan suem bitni. Khohmuen kah khosa rhoek te na kut ah kam paek vetih amih te na mikhmuh lamloh ka haek ni.
I will set your border from the Red Sea even to the sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the River; for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you.
32 Amih taeng neh amih kah pathen taengah paipi saii boeh.
You shall make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.
33 Na khohmuen ah khosa uh boel saeh, kai taengah na tholh ve. A pathen taengah tho na thueng atah na taengah hlaeh la poeh van ni.
They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against me, for if you serve their gods, it will surely be a snare to you.”
