And in the lowlands of Moab by Jordan at Jericho, the Lord said to Moses,

51 “Speak to the sons of Israel, and you have said to them: When you are passing over the Jordan to the land of Canaan,

Say to the children of Israel, When you go over Jordan into the land of Canaan,

52 then you have dispossessed all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and have destroyed all their imagery, indeed, you destroy all their molten images, and you lay waste [to] all their high places,

See that all the people of the land are forced out from before you, and put to destruction all their pictured stones, and all their metal images, and all their high places:

53 and you have possessed the land and dwelt in it, for I have given the land to you to possess it.

And take the land for yourselves, for your resting-place: for to you I have given the land as your heritage.

54 And you have inherited the land by lot, by your families; to the many you increase their inheritance, and to the few you diminish their inheritance; to where the lot goes out to him, it is his; you inherit by the tribes of your fathers.

And you will take up your heritage in the land by the decision of the Lord, to every family its part; the greater the family the greater its heritage, and the smaller the family the smaller will be its heritage; wherever the decision of the Lord gives to any man his part, that will be his; distribution will be made to you by your fathers' tribes.

55 And if you do not dispossess the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it has been [that] those whom you let remain of them [are] for pricks in your eyes and for thorns in your sides, and they have distressed you on the land in which you are dwelling,

But if you are slow in driving out the people of the land, then those of them who are still there will be like pin-points in your eyes and like thorns in your sides, troubling you in the land where you are living.

56 and it has come to pass, as I thought to do to them, I do to you.”

And it will come about that as it was my purpose to do to them, so I will do to you.
