Deuteronomy 9:2-4

Revised Geneva Translation

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.

⁴ “After the LORD your God has cast them out before you, do not speak in your heart, saying ‘Because of my righteousness the LORD has brought me in to possess this land.’ Rather, for the wickedness of these nations, the LORD has cast them out before you.
