Deuteronomy 7:1-3

Modern English Version

The Chosen People

7 When the Lord your God brings you into the land which you are entering to possess and has driven out many nations before you, the Hittites and the Girgashites and the Amorites and the Canaanites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites, seven nations greater and mightier than you, ² and when the Lord your God delivers them before you and you strike them down, then you must utterly destroy them. You shall make no covenant with them nor show mercy to them. ³ What is more, you shall not intermarry with them. You shall not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons.
