'Snare to You' in the Bible
They shall not live in your land, because they will make you sin against Me; for if you serve their gods, it is certain to be a trap for you [resulting in judgment].”
And you shall consume all the peoples whom the Lord your God will give over to you; your eye shall not pity them, nor shall you serve their gods, for that would be a [deadly] trap to you.
So now I say, I will not drive them out before you; but they shall become adversaries to you, and their gods shall be a snare to you."
