Deuteronomy 7 (ESV) English Standard Version

1 "When the LORD your God brings you into the land that you are entering to take possession of it, and clears away many nations before you, the Hittites, the Girgashites, the Amorites, the Canaanites, the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations more numerous and mightier than yourselves,
2 and when the LORD your God gives them over to you, and you defeat them, then you must devote them to complete destruction. You shall make no covenant with them and show no mercy to them.
3 You shall not intermarry with them, giving your daughters to their sons or taking their daughters for your sons,
4 for they would turn away your sons from following me, to serve other gods. Then the anger of the LORD would be kindled against you, and he would destroy you quickly.
5 But thus shall you deal with them: you shall break down their altars and dash in pieces their pillars and chop down their Asherim and burn their carved images with fire.
6 "For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD your God has chosen you to be a people for his treasured possession, out of all the peoples who are on the face of the earth.
7 It was not because you were more in number than any other people that the LORD set his love on you and chose you, for you were the fewest of all peoples,
8 but it is because the LORD loves you and is keeping the oath that he swore to your fathers, that the LORD has brought you out with a mighty hand and redeemed you from the house of slavery, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt.
9 Know therefore that the LORD your God is God, the faithful God who keeps covenant and steadfast love with those who love him and keep his commandments, to a thousand generations,
10 and repays to their face those who hate him, by destroying them. He will not be slack with one who hates him. He will repay him to his face.
11 You shall therefore be careful to do the commandment and the statutes and the rules that I command you today.
12 "And because you listen to these rules and keep and do them, the LORD your God will keep with you the covenant and the steadfast love that he swore to your fathers.
13 He will love you, bless you, and multiply you. He will also bless the fruit of your womb and the fruit of your ground, your grain and your wine and your oil, the increase of your herds and the young of your flock, in the land that he swore to your fathers to give you.
14 You shall be blessed above all peoples. There shall not be male or female barren among you or among your livestock.
15 And the LORD will take away from you all sickness, and none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which you knew, will he inflict on you, but he will lay them on all who hate you.
16 And you shall consume all the peoples that the LORD your God will give over to you. Your eye shall not pity them, neither shall you serve their gods, for that would be a snare to you.
17 "If you say in your heart, 'These nations are greater than I. How can I dispossess them?'
18 you shall not be afraid of them but you shall remember what the LORD your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt,
19 the great trials that your eyes saw, the signs, the wonders, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm, by which the LORD your God brought you out. So will the LORD your God do to all the peoples of whom you are afraid.
20 Moreover, the LORD your God will send hornets among them, until those who are left and hide themselves from you are destroyed.
21 You shall not be in dread of them, for the LORD your God is in your midst, a great and awesome God.
22 The LORD your God will clear away these nations before you little by little. You may not make an end of them at once, lest the wild beasts grow too numerous for you.
23 But the LORD your God will give them over to you and throw them into great confusion, until they are destroyed.
24 And he will give their kings into your hand, and you shall make their name perish from under heaven. No one shall be able to stand against you until you have destroyed them.
25 The carved images of their gods you shall burn with fire. You shall not covet the silver or the gold that is on them or take it for yourselves, lest you be ensnared by it, for it is an abomination to the LORD your God.
26 And you shall not bring an abominable thing into your house and become devoted to destruction like it. You shall utterly detest and abhor it, for it is devoted to destruction.
1 When H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS shall bring H935 thee into H413 PREP the land H776 D-GFS whither H834 RPRO thou H859 PPRO-2MS goest H935 to possess H3423 it , and hath cast out H5394 many H7227 AMP nations H1471 NMP before H6440 M-CMP-2MS thee , the Hittites H2850 , and the Girgashites H1622 , and the Amorites H567 , and the Canaanites H3669 , and the Perizzites H6522 WD-EMS , and the Hivites H2340 , and the Jebusites H2983 , seven H7651 NUM-MS nations H1471 NMP greater H7227 AMP and mightier H6099 than H4480 M-PPRO-2MS thou ;
2 And when the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS shall deliver H5414 them before H6440 L-CMP-2MS thee ; thou shalt smite H5221 them , and utterly destroy H2763 them ; thou shalt make H3772 no H3808 NADV covenant H1285 NFS with them , nor H3808 W-NADV show mercy H2603 unto them :
3 Neither H3808 W-NPAR shalt thou make marriages H2859 with them ; thy daughter H1323 thou shalt not H3808 W-NPAR give H5414 unto his son H1121 , nor H3808 W-NPAR his daughter H1323 shalt thou take H3947 unto thy son H1121 .
4 For H3588 CONJ they will turn away H5493 thy son H1121 from following H310 me , that they may serve H5647 other H312 AMP gods H430 EDP : so will the anger H639 CMS of the LORD H3068 EDS be kindled H2734 against you , and destroy H8045 thee suddenly H4118 .
5 But H518 PART thus H3541 shall ye deal H6213 with them ; ye shall destroy H5422 their altars H4196 , and break down H7665 their images H4676 , and cut down H1438 their groves H842 , and burn H8313 their graven images H6456 with fire H784 .
6 For H3588 CONJ thou H859 PPRO-2MS art a holy H6918 people H5971 NMS unto the LORD H3068 L-EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS : the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS hath chosen H977 thee to be H1961 a special H5459 people H5971 unto himself , above all H3605 M-CMS people H5971 that H834 RPRO are upon H5921 PREP the face H6440 CMP of the earth H127 D-NFS .
7 The LORD H3068 EDS did not H3808 NADV set his love H2836 upon you , nor choose H977 W-VQY3MS you , because ye were more in number H7230 than any H3605 M-CMS people H5971 ; for H3588 CONJ ye H859 PPRO-2MS were the fewest H4592 D-AMS of all H3605 M-CMS people H5971 :
8 But H3588 CONJ because the LORD H3068 EDS loved H160 you , and because he would keep H8104 the oath H7621 which H834 RPRO he had sworn H7650 unto your fathers H1 , hath the LORD H3068 EDS brought you out H3318 VHQ3MS with a mighty H2389 hand H3027 , and redeemed H6299 you out of the house H1004 of bondmen H5650 NMP , from the hand H3027 M-GFS of Pharaoh H6547 EMS king H4428 NMS of Egypt H4714 .
9 Know H3045 W-VQY2MS therefore that H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS , he H1931 PPRO-3MS is God H430 CMP-2MS , the faithful H539 God H410 , which keepeth H8104 covenant H1285 D-NFS and mercy H2617 with them that love H157 him and keep H8104 his commandments H4687 to a thousand H505 generations H1755 ;
10 And repayeth H7999 them that hate H8130 him to H413 PREP their face H6440 CMP-3MS , to destroy H6 them : he will not H3808 NADV be slack H309 to him that hateth H8130 him , he will repay H7999 VPY3MS him to H413 PREP his face H6440 CMP-3MS .
11 Thou shalt therefore keep H8104 the commandments H4687 , and the statutes H2706 , and the judgments H4941 , which H834 RPRO I H595 PPRO-1MS command H6680 thee this day H3117 D-AMS , to do H6213 them .
12 Wherefore it shall come to pass H1961 W-VQQ3MS , if H6118 ye hearken H8085 to these H428 D-DPRO-3MP judgments H4941 , and keep H8104 , and do H6213 them , that the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS shall keep H8104 unto thee the covenant H1285 D-NFS and the mercy H2617 which H834 RPRO he swore H7650 unto thy fathers H1 :
13 And he will love H157 thee , and bless H1288 thee , and multiply H7235 thee : he will also bless H1288 the fruit H6529 of thy womb H990 , and the fruit H6529 of thy land H127 , thy corn H1715 , and thy wine H8492 , and thine oil H3323 , the increase H7698 of thy kine H504 , and the flocks H6251 of thy sheep H6629 , in H5921 PREP the land H127 D-NFS which H834 RPRO he swore H7650 unto thy fathers H1 to give H5414 thee .
14 Thou shalt be H1961 VQY2MS blessed H1288 VWQ3MS above all H3605 M-CMS people H5971 : there shall not H3808 NADV be H1961 VQY3MS male H6135 or female barren H6135 among you , or among your cattle H929 .
15 And the LORD H3068 EDS will take away H5493 from H4480 PREP-2MS thee all H3605 NMS sickness H2483 , and will put H7760 none H3605 NMS of the evil H7451 diseases H4064 of Egypt H4714 EFS , which H834 RPRO thou knowest H3045 VQQ2MS , upon thee ; but will lay H5414 them upon all H3605 NMS them that hate H130 thee .
16 And thou shalt consume H398 W-VQQ2MS all H3605 NMS the people H5971 which H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS shall deliver H5414 VQPMS thee ; thine eye H5869 shall have no pity H2347 upon H5921 PREP-3MP them : neither H3808 NADV shalt thou serve H5647 their gods H430 CMP-2MS ; for H3588 CONJ that H1931 PPRO-3MS will be a snare H4170 unto thee .
17 If H3588 CONJ thou shalt say H559 VQY2MS in thine heart H3824 , These H428 D-DPRO-3MP nations H1471 D-NMP are more H7227 AMP than H4480 M-PREP-1MS I ; how H349 can H3201 I dispossess H3423 them ?
18 Thou shalt not H3808 NADV be afraid H3372 VQY3MS of H4480 them : but shalt well remember H2142 what H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS did H6213 VQQ3MS unto Pharaoh H6547 , and unto all H3605 Egypt H4714 ;
19 The great H1419 temptations H4531 which H834 RPRO thine eyes H5869 CMD-2MS saw H7200 VQQ3MP , and the signs H226 , and the wonders H4159 , and the mighty H2389 hand H3027 , and the stretched out H5186 arm H2220 , whereby H834 RPRO the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS brought thee out H3318 : so H3651 ADV shall the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS do H6213 VQY3MS unto all H3605 L-CMS the people H5971 of whom H834 RPRO thou H859 PPRO-2MS art afraid H3372 .
20 Moreover H1571 W-CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS will send H7971 the hornet H6880 among them , until H5704 PREP they that are left H7604 , and hide themselves H5641 from thee , be destroyed H6 .
21 Thou shalt not H3808 NADV be frightened H6206 at H6440 M-CMP-3MP them : for H3588 CONJ the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS is among H7130 you , a mighty H1419 AMS God H410 EDS and terrible H3372 .
22 And the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS will put out H5394 those H411 nations H1471 D-NMP before H6440 M-CMP-2MS thee by little H4592 AMS and little H4592 : thou mayest H3201 not H3808 NADV consume H3615 them at once H4118 , lest H6435 CONJ the beasts H2416 CFS of the field H7704 D-NMS increase H7235 upon H5921 PREP-2MS thee .
23 But the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS shall deliver H5414 them unto H6440 L-CMP-2MS thee , and shall destroy H1949 them with a mighty H1419 destruction H4103 , until H5704 PREP they be destroyed H8045 .
24 And he shall deliver H5414 W-VQQ3MS their kings H4428 into thine hand H3027 B-CFS-2MS , and thou shalt destroy H6 their name H8034 CMS-3MP from under H8478 M-CFS heaven H8064 D-AMP : there shall no H3808 ADV man H376 NMS be able to stand H3320 before H6440 thee , until H5704 PREP thou have destroyed H8045 them .
25 The graven images H6456 of their gods H430 CMP-2MS shall ye burn H8313 with fire H784 : thou shalt not H3808 ADV desire H2530 the silver H3701 NMS or gold H2091 that is on H5921 PREP-3MP them , nor take H3947 it unto thee , lest H6435 CONJ thou be snared H3369 therein : for H3588 CONJ it H1931 PPRO-3MS is an abomination H8441 to the LORD H3068 EDS thy God H430 CMP-2MS .
26 Neither H3808 W-NPAR shalt thou bring H935 VHY2MS an abomination H8441 into H413 PREP thine house H1004 , lest thou be H1961 W-VQQ2MS a cursed thing H2764 like it H3644 PART-3MS : but thou shalt utterly detest H8262 it , and thou shalt utterly abhor H8581 it ; for H3588 CONJ it H1931 PPRO-3MS is a cursed thing H2764 .
