Exodus 23:27-30

Rotherham(i) 27 My terror, will I send before thee, and will confound all the people, amongst whom thou shalt come, and will deliver up all thine enemies unto thee as they flee. 28 And I will send the hornet, before thee,––and it 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 should become a desolation, so would the wild–beast of the field multiply over thee. 30 Little by little, will I drive them out from before thee,––until thou become fruitful, then shalt thou take possession of the land.
