And the LORD spake unto Moses in the plains of Moab by Jordan {near} Jericho, saying,

Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, When ye are passed over Jordan into the land of Canaan;

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:

And ye shall dispossess {the inhabitants} of the land, and dwell therein: for I have given you the land to possess it.
