¹³ know for certain that ^(A)the Lord your God will no longer drive out these nations from before you. ^(B)But they shall be snares and traps to you, and scourges on your sides and thorns in your eyes, until you perish from this good land which the Lord your God has given you.

³ Therefore I also said, ‘I will not drive them out before you; but they shall be ^(A)thorns^[a] in your side, and ^(B)their gods shall ^[b]be a ^(C)snare to you.’ ”
