Deuteronomy 9:1-3

Revised Geneva Translation

9 “Hear, O Israel. You shall pass over Jordan this day, to go in and to possess nations greater and mightier than yourself, cities great and walled up to Heaven,

² “a people great and tall, the children of the Anakims, whom you know, and of whom you have heard say, ‘Who can stand before the children of Anak?’

³ “Understand, therefore, that this day, the LORD your God is He Who goes over before you, a consuming fire. He shall destroy them and He shall bring them down before your face. So you shall cast them out and destroy them suddenly, as the LORD has said to you.
