Exodus 23:27-30

New International Version

²⁷ “I will send my terror^(A) ahead of you and throw into confusion^(B) every nation you encounter. I will make all your enemies turn their backs and run.^{(C) 28} I will send the hornet^(D) ahead of you to drive the Hivites, Canaanites and Hittites^(E) out of your way. ²⁹ But I will not drive them out in a single year, because the land would become desolate and the wild animals^(F) too numerous for you. ³⁰ Little by little I will drive them out before you, until you have increased enough to take possession^(G) of the land.
