MKJV(i)
16 But of the cities of these people, which Jehovah your God gives you for an inheritance, you shall save alive nothing that breathes.
17 But you shall utterly destroy them: the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites and the Jebusites; as Jehovah your God has commanded you,
18 so that they may not teach you to do according to all their abominations which they have done to their gods. So you would sin against Jehovah your God.
