Deuteronomy 9:2-4
New American Standard Bible
2 a people who are great and tall, the sons of the Anakim, whom you know and of whom you have heard it said, ‘(A)Who can stand against the sons of Anak?’ 3 So be aware today that (B)it is the Lord your God who is crossing over ahead of you as (C)a consuming fire. He will destroy them and He will subdue them before you, so that (D)you may drive them out and eliminate them quickly, just as the Lord has spoken to you.
4 “(E)Do not say in your heart when the Lord your God has driven them away from [a]you, ‘Because of my righteousness the Lord has brought me in to take possession of this land.’ Rather, it is (F)because of the [b]wickedness of these nations that the Lord is dispossessing them before you.
