Deuteronomy 7:15-17

Good News Translation

¹⁵ The Lord will protect you from all sickness, and he will not bring on you any of the dreadful diseases that you experienced in Egypt, but he will bring them on all your enemies. ¹⁶ Destroy every nation that the Lord your God places in your power, and do not show them any mercy. Do not worship their gods, for that would be fatal.

¹⁷ “Do not tell yourselves that these peoples outnumber you and that you cannot drive them out.
