Deuteronomy 7:3-5
Amplified Bible, Classic Edition
3 You shall not make marriages with them; your daughter you shall not give to his son nor shall you take his daughter for your son,
4 For they will turn away your sons from following Me, that they may serve other gods; so will the anger of the Lord be kindled against you and He will destroy you quickly.
5 But thus shall you deal with them: you shall break down their altars and dash in pieces their pillars and hew down their Asherim [symbols of the goddess Asherah] and burn their graven images with fire.
