Instructions for Occupying Canaan

50And Jehovah will speak to Moses in the desert of Moab, by Jordan of Jericho, saying, 51Speak to the sons of Israel and say to them, When ye are passing over Jordan to the land of Canaan, 52And have driven out all those dwelling in the land from before you, and destroy ye all their watch towers, and all their molten images ye shall destroy, and all their heights ye shall lay waste: 53And dispossess ye the land and dwell in it, for to you, I gave the land to possess it. 54And divide ye the land by lot to your tribes: to the many ye shall multiply his inheritance, and to the few ye shall diminish his inheritance; to whom shall come forth to him, there shall the lot be to him; according to the tribes of your fathers ye shall inherit. 55And if ye shall not drive out those dwelling in the land from before you, and it shall be whom ye shall leave from them for thorns in your eyes, and for prickles in your sides; and they pressed you upon the land which ye shall dwell upon it. 56And it was as I purposed to do to them I will do to you.
