After the Lord your God has driven them out before you, do not say to yourself,“ The Lord has brought me here to take possession of this land because of my righteousness.” No, it is on account of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord is going to drive them out before you.

The Lord your God will drive them out to make room for you. When he does, don’t say to yourself,“ The Lord has done it because I am godly. That’s why he brought me here to take over this land.” That isn’t true. The Lord is going to drive out those nations to make room for you because they are very evil.

“ Do not say in your heart, after the Lord your God has thrust them out before you,‘ It is because of my righteousness that the Lord has brought me in to possess this land,’ whereas it is because of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord is driving them out before you.

“ After the Lord your God has done this for you, don’t say in your hearts,‘ The Lord has given us this land because we are such good people!’ No, it is because of the wickedness of the other nations that he is pushing them out of your way.

When the LORD your God drives them out before you, do not say to yourself,‘ The LORD brought me in to take possession of this land because of my righteousness.’ Instead, the LORD will drive out these nations before you because of their wickedness.

“ Do not say in your heart when the Lord your God has driven them away from you,‘ Because of my righteousness the Lord has brought me in to take possession of this land.’ Rather, it is because of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord is dispossessing them before you.

“ Do not think in your heart, after the Lord your God has cast them out before you, saying,‘ Because of my righteousness the Lord has brought me in to possess this land’; but it is because of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord is driving them out from before you.

Speak not thou in thy heart, after that Jehovah thy God hath thrust them out from before thee, saying, For my righteousness Jehovah hath brought me in to possess this land; whereas for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah doth drive them out from before thee.

你心裏說：『這財富是我的力量、我手的能力得來的。』

「你到了耶和華－你神所賜你之地，不可學那些國家行可憎惡的事。你中間不可有人使兒女經火，也不可有占卜的、觀星象的、行法術的、行邪術的、施符咒的、招魂的、行巫術的和求問死人的。凡做這些事的都是耶和華所憎惡的；因這可憎惡的事，耶和華－你的神把他們從你面前趕出去。你要向耶和華－你的神作完全人。你所要趕出的那些國家都聽從觀星象的和占卜的，但是耶和華－你的神從來不准你這樣做。」

「在這一切的事上，你們都不可玷污自己，因為我在你們面前所逐出的列國，在這一切的事上玷污了自己。連地也玷污了，我懲罰那地的罪孽，地就吐出它的居民來。但你們要遵守我的律例典章。這一切可憎惡的事，無論是本地人或寄居在你們中間的外人，都不可以做。在你們之前居住那地的人做了這一切可憎惡的事，地就玷污了。不要讓地因你們玷污了它而把你們吐出來，像吐出在你們之前的國一樣。無論是誰，若做了這其中一件可憎惡的事，必從百姓中剪除。你們要遵守我的吩咐，免得你們隨從那些可憎的習俗，就是在你們之前的人所做的，玷污了自己。我是耶和華－你們的神。」

耶和華專愛你們，揀選你們，並非因你們人數比任何民族多，其實你們的人數在各民族中是最少的。因為耶和華愛你們，又因要遵守他向你們列祖所起的誓，耶和華就用大能的手領你們出來，救贖你脫離為奴之家，脫離埃及王法老的手。

你不可向耶和華－你的神這樣做，因為他們向他們的神明做了耶和華所憎恨、所厭惡的一切事，甚至將自己的兒女用火焚燒，獻給他們的神明。

你能進去得他們的地，並不是因你的義，也不是因你心裏正直，而是因這些國家的惡，耶和華－你的神才把他們從你面前趕出去，為了應驗耶和華向你列祖亞伯拉罕、以撒、雅各起誓應許的話。」

雖然我不覺得自己有錯，卻也不能因此判為無罪；審斷我的是主。

既是靠恩典，就不憑行為，不然，恩典就不再是恩典了。

我們從前也是無知、悖逆、受迷惑，作各樣私慾和宴樂的奴隸，在惡毒、嫉妒中度日，是可恨的，而且彼此相恨。但到了我們救主神的恩慈和慈愛顯明的時候，他救了我們，並不是因我們自己所行的義，而是照他的憐憫，藉着重生的洗和聖靈的更新。

神救了我們，以聖召召我們，不是按我們的行為，而是按他的旨意和恩典；這恩典是萬古之先在基督耶穌裏賜給我們的，

你們要知道，我這樣做不是為你們。以色列家啊，你們當為自己的行為抱愧蒙羞。這是主耶和華說的。

到了第四代，他們必回到這裏，因為亞摩利人的罪惡到現在還沒有滿盈。」

然而，神有豐富的憐憫，因着他愛我們的大愛，竟在我們因過犯而死了的時候，使我們與基督一同活過來－可見你們得救是本乎恩－

使你與人不同的是誰呢？你所有的有哪一個不是領受的呢？若是領受的，為何自誇，彷彿不是領受的呢？

「所以，你要對以色列家說，主耶和華如此說：以色列家啊，我做這事不是為你們，而是為了我的聖名，就是你們在所到的列國中褻瀆的。

不錯。他們因為不信，所以被折下來；你因為信，所以立得住。你不可自高，反要戰戰兢兢。
