you must drive out everyone living in the land, destroy all their carved images and metal idols, and tear down all their pagan temples.
53 Mede asase no ama mo. Momfa na montena so.
You are to take over the country and settle there, because I have given you the land and it belongs to you.

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.
55 “Sɛ moampam nnipa a wɔte hɔ no a, wɔbɛyɛ mo ani ase mpe ne mo honam mu nkasɛɛ. Wɔbɛha mo wɔ asase no so.
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.
56 Na mede deɛ mahyɛ sɛ mɛyɛ wɔn no bɛyɛ mo.”
Eventually the punishment I planned for them I will inflict on you.”
