“Speak to the Israelites and say to them: ‘When you cross the Jordan into Canaan,
52 then ye shall dispossess all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and ye shall destroy all their figured images, and all their molten images shall ye destroy, and all their high places shall ye lay waste;
52
drive out all the inhabitants of the land before you. Destroy all their carved images and their cast idols, and demolish all their high places.
53 and ye shall take possession of the land, and dwell therein, for to you have I given the land to possess it.
53
Take possession of the land and settle in it, for I have given you the land to possess.
54 And ye shall take for yourselves the land as an inheritance by lot according to your families: to the many ye shall increase their inheritance, and to the few thou shalt diminish their inheritance: where the lot falleth to him, there shall be each man's [inheritance]; according to the tribes of your fathers shall ye take for yourselves the inheritance.
54
Distribute the land by lot, according to your clans. To a larger group give a larger inheritance, and to a smaller group a smaller one. Whatever falls to them by lot will be theirs. Distribute it according to your ancestral tribes.
55 But if ye will not dispossess the inhabitants of the land from before you, those that ye let remain of them shall be thorns in your eyes, and pricks in your sides, and they shall harass you in the land wherein ye dwell.
55
“ ‘But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land, those you allow to remain will become barbs in your eyes and thorns in your sides. They will give you trouble in the land where you will live.
56 And it shall come to pass that I will do unto you as I thought to do unto them.
56
And then I will do to you what I plan to do to them.’ ”
