51 Speak to the children of Israel , and tell them , " When you pass over the Jordan into the land of Canaan ,

52 then you shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from before you , destroy all their stone idols, destroy all their molten images , and demolish all their high places .

53 You shall take possession of the land, and dwell therein ; for I have given the land to you to possess it .

54 You shall inherit the land by lot according to your families ; to the larger groups you shall give a larger inheritance , and to the smaller you shall give a smaller inheritance . Wherever the lot falls to any man, that shall be his . You shall inherit according to the tribes of your fathers.

55 " But if you do not drive out the inhabitants of the land from before you , then those you let remain of them will be like pricks in your eyes and thorns in your sides . They will harass you in the land in which you dwell .

56 It shall happen that as I thought to do to them , so I will do to you ."
