51
"Tell the Israelites, 'You will be crossing the Jordan River and entering Canaan.
52 then ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you, and destroy all their idols, and destroy all their molten images, and quite pluck down all their high places.
52
As you advance, force out all the people who live there. Get rid of all their stone and metal idols, and destroy all their places of worship.
53 And ye shall dispossess the inhabitants of the land and dwell therein, for I have given you the land to possess it.
53
Take possession of the land and live there, because I will give it to you for your own.
54 And ye shall divide the land by lot for an inheritance among your families; and to the more ye shall give the more inheritance, and to the fewer ye shall give the less inheritance. Every man's inheritance shall be in the place where his lot falleth, according to the tribes of your fathers ye shall inherit.
54
Divide the land among your families by drawing lots. Give more land to larger families and less land to smaller ones. The land must be given to each family by drawing lots. Divide it among your ancestors' tribes.
55 But if ye will not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you, then it shall come to pass that those who ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes and thorns in your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell.
55
"'But if you do not force out those who live in the land, they will be like splinters in your eyes and thorns in your sides. They will constantly fight with you over the land you live in.
56 Moreover it shall come to pass that I shall do unto you as I thought to do unto them.'"
56
Then I will do to you what I planned to do to them.'"
