Deuteronomy 7

ki yevi'akha Adonai elohekha el-ha'arets asher-attah va-shammah lerishtah venashal goyim-rabbim mippanekha hakhitti vehaggirgashi veha'emori vehakkena'ani vehapperizzi vehakhivvi vehayevusi shivah goyim rabbim va'atsumim mimmekka

When the ETERNAL your God brings you to the land that you are about to enter and possess, and dislodges many nations before you—the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites, seven nations much larger than you—

unetanam Adonai elohekha lefanekha vehikkitam hakharem takharim otam lo-tikhrot lahem berit velo tekhonnem

and the ETERNAL your God delivers them to you and you defeat them, you must doom them to destruction: grant them no terms and give them no quarter.

velo titkhatten bam bittekha lo-titten livno uvitto lo-tiqqakh livnekha

You shall not intermarry with them: do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons.

ki-yasir et-binkha me'akharay ve'avedu elohim akherim vekharah af-Adonai bakhem vehishmidekha maher

For they will turn your children away from Me to worship other gods, and GOD’s anger will blaze forth against you, promptly wiping you out.

ki-im-koh ta'asu lahem mizbekhotehem tittotsu umatsevotam teshabberu va'asherehem tegadde'un ufesilehem tisrefun ba'esh

Instead, this is what you shall do to them: you shall tear down their altars, smash their pillars, cut down their sacred posts, and consign their images to the fire.

ki am qadosh attah la-Adonai elohekha bekha bakhar Adonai elohekha lihyot lo le'am segullah mikkol ha'ammim asher al-pene ha'adamah

For you are a people consecrated to the ETERNAL your God: of all the peoples on earth, the ETERNAL your God chose you to be the treasured one.

lo merubbekhem mikkol-ha'ammim khashaq Adonai bakhem vayyivkhar bakhem ki-attem hame'at mikkol-ha'ammim

It is not because you are the most numerous of peoples that GOD grew attached to you and chose you—indeed, you are the smallest of peoples;

ki me'ahavat Adonai etkhem umishomro et-hashevu'ah asher nishba la'avotekhem hotsi Adonai etkhem beyad khazaqah vayyifdekha mibbet avadim miyyad paroh melekh-mitsrayim

but it was because GOD favored you and kept the oath made to your fathers that GOD freed you with a mighty hand and rescued you from the house of bondage, from the power of Pharaoh king of Egypt.

veyadata ki-Adonai elohekha hu ha'elohim ha'el hanne'eman shomer habberit vehakhesed le'ohavayw uleshomere mitsvotav le'elef dor

Know, therefore, that only the ETERNAL your God is God, the steadfast God who keeps this covenant faithfully to the thousandth generation of those who show love and keep the commandments,

umeshallem lesone'ayw el-panayw leha'avido lo ye'akher lesone'o el-panayw yeshallem-lo

but who instantly requites with destruction those who are disloyal—never slow with those who are disloyal, but requiting them instantly.

veshamarta et-hammitsvah ve'et-hakhuqqim ve'et-hammishpatim asher anokhi metsavvekha hayyom la'asotam

Therefore, observe faithfully the Instruction—the laws and the rules—with which I charge you today.

vehayah eqev tishme'un et hammishpatim ha'elleh ushemartem va'asitem otam veshamar Adonai elohekha lekha et-habberit ve'et-hakhesed asher nishba la'avotekha

And if you do obey these rules and observe them carefully, the ETERNAL your God will maintain faithfully for you the covenant made on oath with your fathers:

va'ahevekha uverakhkha vehirbekha uverakh peri-vitnekha uferi-admatekha deganekha vetiroshekha veyitsharekha shegar-alafekha ve'ashterot tsonekha al ha'adamah asher-nishba la'avotekha latet lakh

[God] will favor you and bless you and multiply you—blessing your issue from the womb and your produce from the soil, your new grain and wine and oil, the calving of your herd and the lambing of your flock, in the land sworn to your fathers to be assigned to you.

barukh tihyeh mikkol-ha'ammim lo-yihyeh vekha aqar va'aqarah uvivhemtekha

You shall be blessed above all other peoples: there shall be no sterile male or female among you or among your livestock.

vehesir Adonai mimmekha kol-kholi vekhol-madve mitsrayim hara'im asher yadata lo yesimam bakh unetanam bekhol-sone'ekha

GOD will ward off from you all sickness—and will not bring upon you any of the dreadful diseases of Egypt, about which you know, but will inflict them upon all your enemies.

ve'akhalta et-kol-ha'ammim asher Adonai elohekha noten lakh lo-takhos enekha alehem velo ta'avod et-elohehem ki-moqesh hu lakh

You shall destroy all the peoples that the ETERNAL your God delivers to you, showing them no pity. And you shall not worship their gods, for that would be a snare to you.

ki tomar bilvavekha rabbim haggoyim ha'elleh mimmenni ekhah ukhal lehorisham

Should you say to yourselves, “These nations are more numerous than we; how can we dispossess them?”

lo tira mehem zakhor tizkor et asher-asah Adonai elohekha lefaroh ulekhol-mitsrayim

You need have no fear of them. You have but to bear in mind what the ETERNAL your God did to Pharaoh and all the Egyptians:

hammassot haggedolot asher-ra'u enekha veha'otot vehammofetim vehayyad hakhazaqah vehazzeroa hannetuyah asher hotsi'akha Adonai elohekha ken-ya'aseh Adonai elohekha lekhol-ha'ammim asher-attah yare mippenehem

the wondrous acts that you saw with your own eyes, the signs and the portents, the mighty hand, and the outstretched arm by which the ETERNAL your God liberated you. Thus will the ETERNAL your God do to all the peoples you now fear.

vegam et-hatsirah yeshallakh Adonai elohekha bam ad-avod hannisharim vehannistarim mippanekha

The ETERNAL your God will also send a plague against them, until those who are left in hiding perish before you.

lo ta'arots mippenehem ki-Adonai elohekha beqirbekha el gadol venora

Do not stand in dread of them, for the ETERNAL your God is in your midst, a great and awesome God.

venashal Adonai elohekha et-haggoyim ha'el mippanekha me'at me'at lo tukhal kallotam maher pen-tirbeh alekha khayyat hassadeh

The ETERNAL your God will dislodge those peoples before you little by little; you will not be able to put an end to them at once, else the wild beasts would multiply to your hurt.

unetanam Adonai elohekha lefanekha vehamam mehumah gedolah ad hishamedam

The ETERNAL your God will deliver them up to you, throwing them into utter panic until they are wiped out.

venatan malkhehem beyadekha veha'avadta et-shemam mittakhat hashamayim lo-yityatsev ish befanekha ad hishmidkha otam

Their kings will be delivered into your hand, and you shall obliterate their name from under the heavens; no one shall stand up to you, until you have wiped them out.

pesile elohehem tisrefun ba'esh lo-takhmod kesef vezahav alehem velaqakhta lakh pen tivvaqesh bo ki to'avat Adonai elohekha hu

You shall consign the images of their gods to the fire; you shall not covet the silver and gold on them and keep it for yourselves, lest you be ensnared thereby; for that is abhorrent to the ETERNAL your God.

velo-tavi to'evah el-betekha vehayita kherem kamohu shaqqets teshaqqetsennu veta'ev teta'avennu ki-kherem hu

You must not bring an abhorrent thing into your house, or you will be proscribed like it; you must reject it as abominable and abhorrent, for it is proscribed.
