Exodus 23:27-29

EasyEnglish Bible

²⁷ I will cause all the nations that you meet to be afraid. All the people who attack you will become confused. I will cause all your enemies to turn round and run away from you. ²⁸ I will send great fear on the people as you move into the land.^[a] That will chase out the Hivites, the Canaanites and the Hittites. ²⁹ But I will not chase out those people in one year. If I did that, the country would become empty of people. Then there would be many wild animals that would cause trouble to you.
