These are the journeys of the children of Israel, which went forth out of the land of Egypt with their armies under the hand of Moses and Aaron.

And Moses wrote their activities out according to their journeys by the commandment of the LORD: and these are their journeys according to their activities out.

And the LORD spoke unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan near Jericho, saying,

51 “Tell the Israelites, ‘Once you cross the Jordan and enter the country of Canaan,

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When all of you are passed over Jordan into the land of Canaan;

52 you must drive out everyone living in the land, destroy all their carved images and metal idols, and tear down all their pagan temples.

Then all of you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places:

53 You are to take over the country and settle there, because I have given you the land and it belongs to you.

And all of you shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell therein: for I have given you the land to possess it.

54 You are to divide the land and allocate it by lot to the different tribal families. Give a larger portion to a larger family, and a smaller portion to a smaller family. Each one's allocation is decided by lot, and you will all receive an allocation depending on your tribe.

And all of you shall divide the land by lot for an inheritance among your families: and to the more all of you shall give the more inheritance, and to the fewer all of you shall give the less inheritance: every man's inheritance shall be in the place where his lot falls; according to the tribes of your fathers all of you shall inherit.

55 But if you don't drive out everyone living in the land, the people you allow to remain will be like grit in your eyes and thorns in your sides. They will cause you trouble where you settle in the country.

But if all of you will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that those which all of you let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein all of you dwell.

56 Eventually the punishment I planned for them I will inflict on you.”

Moreover it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you, as I thought to do unto them.
