thy God. Thou shalt not feethe a kid in his mothers milk.

20 Behold, I fend an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.

21 Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him net: for he will not pardon your tranfgreffions; for my name is in him.

22 But if thou thalt indeed obey his voice, and do all that I fpeak; then I will be an enemy unto thine enemies, and an adverfary unto thine adverfaries.

23 For mine Angel fhall go before thee, and bring thee in unto the Amorites, and the Hittites, and the Perrizzites, and the Ca naanites, the Hivites, and the Jebufites: and I will cut them off.

24 Thou thalt not bow down to their gods, nor ferve them, nor do after their works; but thou shalt utterly overthrow them, and quite break down their images.

25 And ye fhall ferve the LORD your God, and he thall blefs thy bread, and thy water; and I will take ficknefs away from the midft

of thee.

261 There fhall nothing caft their young, nor be barren in thy land: the number of thy days I will fulfil.

27 I will fend my fear before thee, and will deftroy all the people to whom thou thalt come, and I will make all thine enemies turn their backs unto thee.

28 And I will fend hornets before thee, which fhall drive out the Hivite, the Ca-.. naanite, and the Hittite, from before thee.

29 I will not drive them out from before thee in one year; left the land become defolate, and the beaft of the field multiply againit thee.

30 By little and little I will drive them out from before thee, until thou be increated, and inherit the land.

31 And I will fet thy bounds from the Red fea even unto the fea of the Philistines, and from the defert unto the river: for 1 will deliver the inhabitants of the land into your hand; and thou shalt drive them out before thee.

32 Thoufhalt make no covenant with them, nor with their gods.

33 They haй not dwell in thy land, left they make thee fin against me: for if thou ferve their gods, it will furely be'a fnare un

to thee.
