Deuteronomy 7:16-26 - Exhortation To Destroy Canaanite Paganism
16 And you shall destroy all the people which Jehovah your God shall deliver you. Your eye shall have no pity upon them, neither shall you serve their gods, for they will be a snare to you.
17 If you shall say in your heart, These nations are more than I; how can I throw them out? 18 You shall not be afraid of them, but shall well remember what Jehovah your God did to Pharaoh and to all Egypt. 19 Remember the great temptations which your eyes saw, and the signs, and the wonders, and the mighty hand, and the stretched-out arm by which the Lord your God brought you out. So shall Jehovah your God do to all the people of whom you are afraid. 20 And Jehovah your God will send the hornet among them, until the ones who are left, and who hide themselves from you, are destroyed. 21 You shall not be afraid of them, for Jehovah your God is among you, a mighty and terrible God. 22 And Jehovah your God will put out those nations before you by little and little. You may not destroy them at once, lest the beasts of the field increase upon you. 23 And Jehovah your God shall deliver them to you, and shall destroy them with a mighty ruin until they are destroyed. 24 And He shall deliver their kings into your hand, and you shall destroy their name from under the heavens. No man shall be able to stand before you until you have destroyed them. 25 You shall burn the graven images of their gods with fire. You shall not desire the silver or gold on them, nor take it for yourself, so that you may not be snared in it. For it is an abomination to Jehovah your God. 26 And you shall not bring an abomination into your house, lest you be a cursed thing like it. You shall utterly hate it, and you shall utterly despise it. For it is a cursed thing.
