Deuteronomy 9:3-5

New American Standard Bible

³ So be aware today that ^(A)it is the Lord your God who is crossing over ahead of you as ^(B)a consuming fire. He will destroy them and He will subdue them before you, so that ^(C)you may drive them out and eliminate them quickly, just as the Lord has spoken to you.

⁴ “^(D)Do not say in your heart when the Lord your God has driven them away from ^[a]you, ‘Because of my righteousness the Lord has brought me in to take possession of this land.’ Rather, it is ^(E)because of the ^[b]wickedness of these nations that the Lord is dispossessing them before you. ⁵ It is ^(F)not because of your righteousness or the uprightness of your heart that you are going in to take possession of their land, ^[c]but it is because of the ^[d]wickedness of these nations that the Lord your God is driving them out from before you, and in order to confirm ^(G)the ^[e]oath which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
