the priest went up into mount Hor at the commandment of the LORD, and died
there, in the fortieth year after the children of Israel were come out of the

50: And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan
near Jericho, saying,
51: Speak unto the children of Israel, and say
unto them, When ye are passed over Jordan into the land of Canaan;
52: Then ye shall drive out all the inhabitants of the land from
before you, and destroy all their pictures, and destroy all their molten images,
and quite pluck down all their high places:
53: And ye shall
dispossess the inhabitants of the land, and dwell therein: for I have given you
the land to possess it.
54: And ye shall divide the land by lot for
an inheritance among your families: and to the more ye shall give the more
inheritance, and to the fewer ye shall give the less inheritance: every man's
inheritance shall be in the place where his lot falleth; according to the tribes
of your fathers ye shall inherit.
55: But if ye will not drive out
the inhabitants of the land from before you; then it shall come to pass, that
those which ye let remain of them shall be pricks in your eyes, and thorns in
your sides, and shall vex you in the land wherein ye dwell.
56:
Moreover it shall come to pass, that I shall do unto you, as I thought to do
unto them.
