the land of Canaan,
52 then you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, destroy all their stone idols, destroy all their
molten images, and demolish all their high
places.
53 You shall take possession of the land,
and dwelltherein;for Ihave giventhe land
to you to possess it.
54 Youshallinheritthe landby lot according to your families; to the larger groups
you shall give a larger inheritance, and
to the smaller you shall give a smaller inheritance. Wherever the lot falls to any
man, that shall be his. You shall inherit
according to the tribes of your fathers.
55 “But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then
those you let remain of them will be like
pricks in your eyes and thorns in your
sides. They will harass you in the land in
which you dwell.
56 It shall happen that as I thought to do
to them, so I will do to you.”
