And Moses bowed himself to the earth quickly, and worshipped and
said: If I have found grace in thy sight o Lord, then let my Lord
go with us (for it is a stubborn people) and have mercy upon our
wickedness and our sin, and let us be thine enheritance. And he
said: behold, I make an appointment before all this people, that I
will do marvels: such as have not been done in all the world,
neither among any nation. And all the people among which thou art,
shall see the work of the LORD: for it is a terrible thing that I
will do with thee: keep all that I command thee this day, and
behold: I will cast out before thee: the Amorites, Cananites,
Hethites, Pherezites, Hevites and Iebusites. Take heed to thyself,
that thou make no compact with the inhabiters of the land whither
thou goest lest it be cause of ruin among you. But overthrow their
altars and break their pillars, and cut down their groves, for
thou shalt worship no strange god. For the LORD is called jealous,
because he is a jealous God: lest if thou make any agreement with
the inhabiters of the land, when they go a whoring after their
gods and do sacrifice unto their gods, they call thee and thou eat
of their sacrifice: And thou take of their daughters unto thy
sons, and when their daughters go a whoring after their gods, they
make thy sons go a whoring after their gods also.
