Exodus 23:24-33
King James Version

24 Thou shalt not bow down to their gods, nor serve them, nor do after their works: but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images.

25 And ye shall serve the Lord your God, and he shall bless thy bread, and thy water; and I will take sickness away from the midst of thee.

26 There shall nothing cast their young, nor be barren, in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.

27 I will send my fear before thee, and will destroy all the people to whom thou shalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee.

28 And I will send hornets before thee, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite, from before thee.

29 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; lest the land become desolate, and the beast of the field multiply against thee.

30 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increased, and inherit the land.

31 And I will set thy bounds from the Red sea even unto the sea of the Philistines, and from the desert unto the river: for I will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand; and thou shalt drive them out before thee.

32 Thou shalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.

33 They shall not dwell in thy land, lest they make thee sin against me: for if thou serve their gods, it will surely be a snare unto thee.

Exodus 23:24-33
New King James Version

24 You shall not (A)bow down to their gods, nor serve them, (B)nor do according to their works; (C)but you shall utterly overthrow them and completely break down their sacred pillars.

25 “So you shall (D)serve the Lord your God, and (E)He will bless your bread and your water. And (F)I will take sickness away from the midst of you. 26 (G)No one shall suffer miscarriage or be barren in your land; I will (H)fulfill the number of your days.

27 “I will send (I)My fear before you, I will (J)cause confusion among all the people to whom you come, and will make all your enemies turn their backs to you. 28 And (K)I will send hornets before you, which shall drive out the Hivite, the Canaanite, and the Hittite from before you. 29 (L)I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate and the beasts of the field become too numerous for you. 30 Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased, and you inherit the land. 31 And (M)I will set your [a]bounds from the Red Sea to the sea, Philistia, and from the desert to the [b]River. For I will (N)deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you. 32 (O)You shall make no [c]covenant with them, nor with their gods. 33 They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against Me. For if you serve their gods, (P)it will surely be a snare to you.”

24 you shall (A)not bow down to their gods nor serve them, (B)nor do as they do, but (C)you shall utterly overthrow them and break their (D)pillars in pieces. 25 You (E)shall serve the Lord your God, and (F)he[a] will bless your bread and your water, and (G)I will take sickness away from among you. 26 (H)None shall miscarry or be barren in your land; I will fulfill the (I)number of your days. 27 I will send (J)my terror before you and will throw into (K)confusion all the people against whom you shall come, and I will make all your enemies turn their backs to you. 28 And (L)I will send hornets[b] before you, which shall drive out the Hivites, the Canaanites, and the Hittites from before you. 29 (M)I will not drive them out from before you in one year, lest the land become desolate and the wild beasts multiply against you. 30 Little by little I will drive them out from before you, until you have increased and possess the land. 31 (N)And I will set your border from the Red Sea to the Sea of the Philistines, and from the wilderness to the Euphrates,[c] for (O)I will give the inhabitants of the land into your hand, and you shall drive them out before you. 32 (P)You shall make no covenant with them and their gods. 33 They shall not dwell in your land, lest they make you sin against me; for if you serve their gods, (Q)it will surely be a snare to you.”

Exodus 23:24-33
New International Version

24 Do not bow down before their gods or worship(A) them or follow their practices.(B) You must demolish(C) them and break their sacred stones(D) to pieces. 25 Worship the Lord your God,(E) and his blessing(F) will be on your food and water. I will take away sickness(G) from among you, 26 and none will miscarry or be barren(H) in your land. I will give you a full life span.(I)

27 “I will send my terror(J) ahead of you and throw into confusion(K) every nation you encounter. I will make all your enemies turn their backs and run.(L) 28 I will send the hornet(M) ahead of you to drive the Hivites, Canaanites and Hittites(N) 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(O) too numerous for you. 30 Little by little I will drive them out before you, until you have increased enough to take possession(P) of the land.

31 “I will establish your borders from the Red Sea[a] to the Mediterranean Sea,[b] and from the desert to the Euphrates River.(Q) I will give into your hands the people who live in the land, and you will drive them out(R) before you. 32 Do not make a covenant(S) with them or with their gods. 33 Do not let them live in your land or they will cause you to sin against me, because the worship of their gods will certainly be a snare(T) to you.”
