25 You must worship the Lord your God. If you do, I will bless your bread and your water. I will take away sickness from you.
26 None of your women will have her baby die before it is born. All women will have children. I will allow you to live long lives.
27 “I will make your enemies afraid of me. I will confuse any people you fight against. I will make all your enemies run away from you.
28 I will send something like hornets ahead of you. They will force the Hivites, Canaanites and Hittites out of your way.
29 But I will not force all those people out in only one year. If I did, the land would become a desert. Then the wild animals would become too many for you.
30 Instead, I will force those people out of your land very slowly. I will wait until there are enough of you to take over the land.
31 “I will give you the land from the Gulf of Aqaba to the Mediterranean Sea. And I will give you the land between the desert and the Euphrates River. I will give you power over the people who now live in the land. You will force them out ahead of you.
