Deuteronomy:7:1-5

*
When the LORD thy God shall bring thee into the land whither thou goest to possess it ,
and shall cast out many nations before thee ,
the Hittite ,
and the Girgashite ,
and the Amorite ,
and the Canaanite ,
and the Perizzite ,
and the Hivite ,
and the Jebusite ,
seven nations greater and mightier than thou ;
*
and when the LORD thy God shall deliver them up before thee ,
and thou shalt smite them ;
then thou shalt utterly destroy them ;
thou shalt make no covenant with them ,
nor show mercy unto them ;
*
neither shalt thou make marriages with them :
thy daughter thou shalt not give unto his son ,
nor his daughter shalt thou take unto thy son .
*
For he will turn away thy son from following Me ,
that they may serve other gods ;
so will the anger of the LORD be kindled against you ,
and He will destroy thee quickly .
*
But thus shall ye deal with them :
ye shall break down their altars ,
and dash in pieces their pillars ,
and hew down their Asherim ,
and burn their graven images with fire .
