18 don’t be afraid of them! Remember, instead, what the Lord your God did to Pharaoh and all Egypt:
19 the great trials that you saw with your own eyes, the signs and wonders, and the strong hand and outstretched arm the Lord your God used to rescue you. That’s what the Lord your God will do to any people you fear.
20 The Lord your God will send terror on them until even the survivors and those hiding from you are destroyed.
21 Don’t dread these nations because the Lord your God, the great and awesome God, is with you and among you. (
22 The Lord your God will drive out these nations before you bit by bit. You won’t be able to finish them off quickly; otherwise, the wild animals would become too much for you to handle.)
23 The Lord your God will lay these nations before you, throwing them into a huge panic until they are destroyed.
24 He will hand their kings over to you, and you will wipe their names out from under the skies. No one will be able to stand before you; you will crush them.
