1 When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it, and hath cast out many nations before thee, the Hittites, and the Girgashites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, and the Hivites, and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than thou; 2 And when the LORD thy God shall deliver them before thee; thou shalt smite them, and utterly destroy them; thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor shew mercy unto them: 3 Neither shalt thou make marriages with them; thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son, nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son. 4 For they will turn away thy son from following me, that they may serve other gods: so will the anger of the LORD be kindled against you, and destroy thee suddenly. 5 But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire. 6 For thou art an holy people unto the LORD thy God: the LORD thy God hath chosen thee to be a special people unto himself, above all people that are upon the face of the earth. 7 The LORD did not set his love upon you, nor choose you, because ye were more in number than any people; for ye were the fewest of all people: 8 But because the LORD loved you, and because he would keep the oath which he had sworn unto your fathers, hath the LORD brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you out of the house of bondmen, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt. 9 Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations; 10 And repayeth them that hate him to their face, to destroy them: he will not be slack to him that hateth him, he will repay him to his face. 11 Thou shalt therefore keep the commandments, and the statutes, and the judgments, which I command thee this day, to do them.
12 ¶ Wherefore it shall come to pass, if ye hearken to these judgments, and keep, and do them, that the LORD thy God shall keep unto thee the covenant and the mercy which he sware unto thy fathers: 13 And he will love thee, and bless thee, and multiply thee: he will also bless the fruit of thy womb, and the fruit of thy land, thy corn, and thy wine, and thine oil, the increase of thy kine, and the flocks of thy sheep, in the land which he sware unto thy fathers to give thee. 14 Thou shalt be blessed above all people: there shall not be male or female barren among you, or among your cattle. 15 And the LORD will take away from thee all sickness, and will put none of the evil diseases of Egypt, which thou knowest, upon thee; but will lay them upon all them that hate thee. 16 And thou shalt consume all the people which the LORD thy God shall deliver thee; thine eye shall have no pity upon them: neither shalt thou serve their gods; for that will be a snare unto thee. 17 If thou shalt say in thine heart, These nations are more than I; how can I dispossess them? 18 Thou shalt not be afraid of them: but shalt well remember what the LORD thy God did unto Pharaoh, and unto all Egypt; 19 The great temptations which thine eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the stretched out arm, whereby the LORD thy God brought thee out: so shall the LORD thy God do unto all the people of whom thou art afraid. 20 Moreover the LORD thy God will send the hornet among them, until they that are left, and hide themselves from thee, be destroyed. 21 Thou shalt not be affrighted at them: for the LORD thy God is among you, a mighty God and terrible. 22 And the LORD thy God will put out those nations before thee by little and little: thou mayest not consume them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon thee. 23 But the LORD thy God shall deliver them unto thee, and shall destroy them with a mighty destruction, until they be destroyed. 24 And he shall deliver their kings into thine hand, and thou shalt destroy their name from under heaven: there shall no man be able to stand before thee, until thou have destroyed them. 25 The graven images of their gods shall ye burn with fire: thou shalt not desire the silver or gold that is on them, nor take it unto thee, lest thou be snared therein: for it is an abomination to the LORD thy God. 26 Neither shalt thou bring an abomination into thine house, lest thou be a cursed thing like it: but thou shalt utterly detest it, and thou shalt utterly abhor it; for it is a cursed thing.
1 cum introduxerit te Dominus Deus tuus in terram
quam possessurus ingredieris
et deleverit gentes multas coram te
Hettheum et Gergeseum et Amorreum
Chananeum et Ferezeum et Eveum et Iebuseum
septem gentes multo maioris numeri quam tu es
et robustiores te
2 tradideritque eas Dominus Deus tuus tibi
percuties eas usque ad internicionem
non inibis cum eis foedus nec misereberis earum
3 neque sociabis cum eis coniugia
filiam tuam non dabis filio eius nec filiam illius accipies filio tuo
4 quia seducet filium tuum ne sequatur me
et ut magis serviat diis alienis
irasceturque furor Domini et delebit te cito
5 quin potius haec facietis eis aras eorum subvertite
confringite statuas lucosque succidite
et sculptilia conburite
6 quia populus sanctus es Domino Deo tuo
te elegit Dominus Deus tuus
ut sis ei populus peculiaris de cunctis populis qui sunt super terram
7 non quia cunctas gentes numero vincebatis
vobis iunctus est Dominus et elegit vos
cum omnibus sitis populis pauciores
8 sed quia dilexit vos Dominus
et custodivit iuramentum quod iuravit patribus vestris
eduxitque vos in manu forti et redemit de domo servitutis
de manu Pharaonis regis Aegypti
9 et scies quia Dominus Deus tuus ipse est Deus fortis et fidelis
custodiens pactum et misericordiam diligentibus se
et his qui custodiunt praecepta eius in mille generationes
10 et reddens odientibus se statim ita ut disperdat eos et ultra non
differat
protinus eis restituens quod merentur
11 custodi ergo praecepta et caerimonias atque iudicia
quae ego mando tibi hodie ut facias
12 si postquam audieris haec iudicia custodieris ea et feceris
custodiet et Dominus Deus tuus tibi pactum
et misericordiam quam iuravit patribus tuis
13 et diliget te ac multiplicabit
benedicetque fructui ventris tui et fructui terrae
tuae
frumento tuo atque vindemiae
oleo et armentis gregibus ovium tuarum super terram
pro qua iuravit patribus tuis ut daret eam tibi
14 benedictus eris inter omnes populos
non erit apud te sterilis utriusque sexus
tam in hominibus quam in gregibus tuis
15 auferet Dominus a te omnem languorem
et infirmitates Aegypti pessimas quas novisti
non inferet tibi sed cunctis hostibus tuis
16 devorabis omnes populos quos Dominus Deus tuus daturus est tibi
non parcet eis oculus tuus
nec servies diis eorum ne sint in ruinam tui
17 si dixeris in corde tuo plures sunt gentes istae quam ego
quomodo potero delere eas
18 noli metuere sed recordare quae fecerit Dominus Deus tuus Pharaoni et
cunctis Aegyptiis
19 plagas maximas quas viderunt oculi tui
et signa atque portenta manumque robustam et extentum brachium
ut educeret te Dominus Deus tuus
sic faciet cunctis populis quos metuis
20 insuper et crabrones mittet Dominus Deus tuus in eos
donec deleat omnes atque disperdat
qui te fugerint et latere potuerint
21 non timebis eos quia Dominus Deus tuus in medio tui est
Deus magnus et terribilis
22 ipse consumet nationes has in conspectu tuo
paulatim atque per partes
non poteris delere eas pariter
ne forte multiplicentur contra te bestiae terrae
23 dabitque eos Dominus Deus tuus in conspectu tuo
et interficiet illos donec penitus deleantur
24 tradet reges eorum in manus tuas
et disperdes nomina eorum sub caelo
nullus poterit resistere tibi donec conteras eos
25 sculptilia eorum igne conbures
non concupisces argentum et aurum de quibus facta sunt
neque adsumes ex eis tibi quicquam ne offendas propter ea
quia abominatio est Domini Dei tui
26 nec inferes quippiam ex idolo in domum tuam
ne fias anathema sicut et illud est
quasi spurcitiam detestaberis
et velut inquinamentum ac sordes abominationi habebis
quia anathema est
