6. Therefore be ye very courageous to keep and to do all that is written in the book of the law of Moses, that ye turn not aside therefrom to the right hand or to the left;
7. that ye come not among these nations, these that remain among you; neither make mention of the name of their gods, nor cause to swear by them, neither serve them, nor bow down yourselves unto them:
8. but cleave unto the Lord your God, as ye have done unto this day.
9. For the Lord hath driven out from before you great nations and strong: but as for you, no man hath stood before you unto this day.
