Deuteronomy 7:1 (ERVEN) Easy to Read - English

1 "The Lord your God will lead you into the land that you are entering to take for your own. He will force out many nations for you�the Hittites, Girgashites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites, and Jebusites�seven nations greater and more powerful than you.
2 The Lord your God will put these nations under your power. And you will defeat them. You must destroy them completely. Don't make an agreement with them or show them mercy.
3 Don't marry any of them, and don't let your sons or daughters marry any of the people from those other nations.
4 If you do, they will turn your children away from following me. Then your children will serve other gods, and the Lord will be very angry with you. He will quickly destroy you!
5 "This is what you must do to those nations: You must smash their altars and break their memorial stones into pieces. Cut down their Asherah poles and burn their statues.
6 Do this because you are the Lord's own people. From all the people on earth, the Lord your God chose you to be his special people�people who belong only to him.
7 Why did the Lord love and choose you? It was not because you are such a large nation. You had the fewest of all people!
8 But the Lord brought you out of Egypt with great power and made you free from slavery. He freed you from the control of Pharaoh, the king of Egypt. The Lord did this because he loves you and he wanted to keep the promise he made to your ancestors.
9 "So remember that the Lord your God is the only God, and you can trust him! He keeps his agreement. He shows his love and kindness to all people who love him and obey his commands. He continues to show his love and kindness through a thousand generations,
10 but the Lord punishes people who hate him. He will destroy them. He will not be slow to punish those who hate him.
11 So you must be careful to obey the commands, laws, and rules that I give you today.
12 "If you listen to these laws, and if you are careful to obey them, the Lord your God will keep his agreement of love with you. He promised this to your ancestors.
13 He will love you and bless you. He will make your nation grow. He will bless your children. He will bless your fields with good crops and will give you grain, new wine, and oil. He will bless your cows with calves and your sheep with lambs. You will have all these blessings in the land that he promised your ancestors to give you.
14 "You will be blessed more than all people. Every husband and wife will be able to have children. Your cows will be able to have calves.
15 The Lord will take away all sickness from you and he will not let you catch any of the terrible diseases that you had in Egypt. But he will make your enemies catch those diseases.
16 You must destroy all the people the Lord your God helps you defeat. Don't feel sorry for them, and don't worship their gods! They will trap you�they will ruin your life.
17 "Don't say in your heart, 'These nations are stronger than we are. How can we force them out?'
18 You must not be afraid of them. You must remember what the Lord your God did to Pharaoh and to all the people of Egypt.
19 You saw the great troubles he gave them and the amazing things he did. You saw the Lord use his great power and strength to bring you out of Egypt. The Lord your God will use that same power against all the people you fear.
20 "The Lord your God will send the hornet against them. He will do this until he destroys all the people who escaped and tried to hide.
21 Don't be afraid of them, because the Lord your God is with you. He is a great and awesome God.
22 The Lord your God will force those nations to leave your country little by little. You will not destroy them all at once. If you did, the wild animals would grow to be too many for you.
23 But the Lord your God will let you defeat those nations. He will confuse them in battle, until they are destroyed.
24 The Lord will help you defeat their kings. You will kill them, and the world will forget they ever lived. No one will be able to stop you. You will destroy them all!
25 "You must throw the statues of their gods into the fire and burn them. You must not want to keep the silver or the gold that is on those statues for yourselves. It will be like a trap to you�it will ruin your life. The Lord your God hates those idols.
26 You must not bring any of those disgusting idols into your homes, or you will be destroyed just as they will be. You must treat them as the disgusting things they are! They are to be destroyed.
1 When H3588 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall bring H935 thee into H413 the land H776 whither H834 H8033 thou H859 goest H935 to possess H3423 it , and hath cast out H5394 many H7227 nations H1471 before H4480 H6440 thee , the Hittites, H2850 and the Girgashites, H1622 and the Amorites, H567 and the Canaanites, H3669 and the Perizzites, H6522 and the Hivites, H2340 and the Jebusites, H2983 seven H7651 nations H1471 greater H7227 and mightier H6099 than H4480 thou;
2 And when the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall deliver H5414 them before H6440 thee ; thou shalt smite H5221 them, and utterly destroy H2763 H2763 them ; thou shalt make H3772 no H3808 covenant H1285 with them, nor H3808 show mercy H2603 unto them:
3 Neither H3808 shalt thou make marriages H2859 with them ; thy daughter H1323 thou shalt not H3808 give H5414 unto his son, H1121 nor H3808 his daughter H1323 shalt thou take H3947 unto thy son. H1121
4 For H3588 they will turn away H5493 H853 thy son H1121 from following H4480 H310 me , that they may serve H5647 other H312 gods: H430 so will the anger H639 of the LORD H3068 be kindled H2734 against you , and destroy H8045 thee suddenly. H4118
5 But H3588 H518 thus H3541 shall ye deal H6213 with them ; ye shall destroy H5422 their altars, H4196 and break down H7665 their images, H4676 and cut down H1438 their groves, H842 and burn H8313 their graven images H6456 with fire. H784
6 For H3588 thou H859 art a holy H6918 people H5971 unto the LORD H3068 thy God: H430 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 hath chosen H977 thee to be H1961 a special H5459 people H5971 unto himself , above all H4480 H3605 people H5971 that H834 are upon H5921 the face H6440 of the earth. H127
7 The LORD H3068 did not H3808 set his love H2836 upon you , nor choose H977 you , because ye were more in number H4480 H7230 than any H4480 H3605 people; H5971 for H3588 ye H859 were the fewest H4592 of all H4480 H3605 people: H5971
8 But H3588 because the LORD H3068 loved H4480 H160 you , and because he would keep H4480 H8104 H853 the oath H7621 which H834 he had sworn H7650 unto your fathers, H1 hath the LORD H3068 brought you out H3318 H853 with a mighty H2389 hand, H3027 and redeemed H6299 you out of the house H4480 H1004 of bondmen, H5650 from the hand H4480 H3027 of Pharaoh H6547 king H4428 of Egypt. H4714
9 Know H3045 therefore that H3588 the LORD H3068 thy God, H430 he H1931 is God, H430 the faithful H539 God, H410 which keepeth H8104 covenant H1285 and mercy H2617 with them that love H157 him and keep H8104 his commandments H4687 to a thousand H505 generations; H1755
10 And repayeth H7999 them that hate H8130 him to H413 their face, H6440 to destroy H6 them : he will not H3808 be slack H309 to him that hateth H8130 him , he will repay H7999 him to H413 his face. H6440
11 Thou shalt therefore keep H8104 H853 the commandments, H4687 and the statutes, H2706 and the judgments, H4941 which H834 I H595 command H6680 thee this day, H3117 to do H6213 them.
12 Wherefore it shall come to pass, H1961 if H6118 ye hearken H8085 H853 to these H428 judgments, H4941 and keep, H8104 and do H6213 them , that the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall keep H8104 unto thee H853 the covenant H1285 and the mercy H2617 which H834 he swore H7650 unto thy fathers: H1
13 And he will love H157 thee , and bless H1288 thee , and multiply H7235 thee : he will also bless H1288 the fruit H6529 of thy womb, H990 and the fruit H6529 of thy land, H127 thy corn, H1715 and thy wine, H8492 and thine oil, H3323 the increase H7698 of thy kine, H504 and the flocks H6251 of thy sheep, H6629 in H5921 the land H127 which H834 he swore H7650 unto thy fathers H1 to give H5414 thee.
14 Thou shalt be H1961 blessed H1288 above all H4480 H3605 people: H5971 there shall not H3808 be H1961 male H6135 or female barren H6135 among you , or among your cattle. H929
15 And the LORD H3068 will take away H5493 from H4480 thee all H3605 sickness, H2483 and will put H7760 none H3605 H3808 of the evil H7451 diseases H4064 of Egypt, H4714 which H834 thou knowest, H3045 upon thee ; but will lay H5414 them upon all H3605 them that hate H130 thee.
16 And thou shalt consume H398 H853 all H3605 the people H5971 which H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall deliver H5414 thee ; thine eye H5869 shall have no pity H2347 H3808 upon H5921 them: neither H3808 shalt thou serve H5647 H853 their gods; H430 for H3588 that H1931 will be a snare H4170 unto thee.
17 If H3588 thou shalt say H559 in thine heart, H3824 These H428 nations H1471 are more H7227 than H4480 I; how H349 can H3201 I dispossess H3423 them?
18 Thou shalt not H3808 be afraid H3372 of H4480 them: but shalt well remember H2142 H2142 H853 what H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 did H6213 unto Pharaoh, H6547 and unto all H3605 Egypt; H4714
19 The great H1419 temptations H4531 which H834 thine eyes H5869 saw, H7200 and the signs, H226 and the wonders, H4159 and the mighty H2389 hand, H3027 and the stretched out H5186 arm, H2220 whereby H834 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 brought thee out: H3318 so H3651 shall the LORD H3068 thy God H430 do H6213 unto all H3605 the people H5971 of whom H834 thou H859 art afraid H3372 H4480. H6440
20 Moreover H1571 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 will send H7971 H853 the hornet H6880 among them, until H5704 they that are left, H7604 and hide themselves H5641 from H4480 H6440 thee , be destroyed. H6
21 Thou shalt not H3808 be frightened H6206 at H4480 H6440 them: for H3588 the LORD H3068 thy God H430 is among H7130 you , a mighty H1419 God H410 and terrible. H3372
22 And the LORD H3068 thy God H430 will put out H5394 H853 those H411 nations H1471 before H4480 H6440 thee by little H4592 and little: H4592 thou mayest H3201 not H3808 consume H3615 them at once, H4118 lest H6435 the beasts H2416 of the field H7704 increase H7235 upon H5921 thee.
23 But the LORD H3068 thy God H430 shall deliver H5414 them unto H6440 thee , and shall destroy H1949 them with a mighty H1419 destruction, H4103 until H5704 they be destroyed. H8045
24 And he shall deliver H5414 their kings H4428 into thine hand, H3027 and thou shalt destroy H6 H853 their name H8034 from under H4480 H8478 heaven: H8064 there shall no H3808 man H376 be able to stand H3320 before H6440 thee, until H5704 thou have destroyed H8045 them.
25 The graven images H6456 of their gods H430 shall ye burn H8313 with fire: H784 thou shalt not H3808 desire H2530 the silver H3701 or gold H2091 that is on H5921 them , nor take H3947 it unto thee, lest H6435 thou be snared H3369 therein: for H3588 it H1931 is an abomination H8441 to the LORD H3068 thy God. H430
26 Neither H3808 shalt thou bring H935 an abomination H8441 into H413 thine house, H1004 lest thou be H1961 a cursed thing H2764 like it: H3644 but thou shalt utterly detest H8262 H8262 it , and thou shalt utterly abhor H8581 H8581 it; for H3588 it H1931 is a cursed thing. H2764
