24 Do not bow down to their gods or worship them, and do not adopt their religious practices. Destroy their gods and break down their sacred stone pillars.
25 If you worship me, the Lord your God, I will bless you with food and water and take away all your illnesses.
26 In your land no woman will have a miscarriage or be without children. I will give you long lives.
27 “I will make the people who oppose you afraid of me; I will bring confusion among the people against whom you fight, and I will make all your enemies turn and run from you.
28 I will throw your enemies into a panic; I will drive out the Hivites, the Canaanites, and the Hittites as you advance.
29 I will not drive them out within one year; if I did, the land would become deserted, and the wild animals would be too many for you.
30 Instead, I will drive them out little by little, until there are enough of you to take possession of the land.
