Exodus 23:28-30

EasyEnglish Bible

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. ³⁰ I will remove the people slowly, one group at a time. As you become strong, you will take the land as your own home.
