9 For ye Lorde hath cast out before you great nations and mightie, and no man hath stand before your face hitherto. 10 One man of you shall chase a thousand: for the Lord your God, he fighteth for you, as he hath promised you. 11 Take good heede therefore vnto your selues, that ye loue the Lord your God. 12 Els, if ye goe backe, and cleaue vnto the rest of these nations: that is, of them that remaine with you, and shall make marriages with them, and goe vnto them, and they to you, 13 Knowe ye for certaine, that the Lord your God will cast out no more of these nations from before you: but they shall be a snare and destruction vnto you, and a whip on your sides, and thornes in your eyes, vntill ye perish out of this good land, which ye Lord your God hath giue you.
