Exodus 23:28-30

Modern English Version

²⁸ I will send hornets before you which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite from before you. ²⁹ I will not drive them out before you in one year, lest the land become desolate and the beasts of the field multiply against you. ³⁰ Little by little I will drive them out before you, until you become fruitful and inherit the land.
