Joshua 23:11-13

Living Bible

¹¹ So be very careful to keep on loving him.

¹² “If you don’t, and if you begin to intermarry with the nations around you, ¹³ then know for a certainty that the Lord your God will no longer chase those nations from your land. Instead, they will be a snare and a trap to you, a pain in your side and a thorn in your eyes, and you will disappear from this good land which the Lord your God has given you.
