Deuteronomy 20:16-18

Jubilee Bible 2000

¹⁶ Only of the cities of these peoples, which the LORD thy God gives thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing that breathes;

¹⁷ but thou shalt utterly destroy them: the Hittite and the Amorite, the Canaanite and the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, as the LORD thy God has commanded thee,

¹⁸ that they not teach you to do after all their abominations, which they do unto their gods, lest ye should sin against the LORD your God.
