ગુજરાતીપુનર્નિયમ ૨૦:૧૭
પણ જેમ યહોવાહ તમારા ઈશ્વરે તમને આજ્ઞા આપી છે તેમ તમારે તેઓનો, એટલે કે હિત્તીઓ, અમોરીઓ, કનાનીઓ, હિવ્વીઓ પરિઝીઓ અને યબૂસીઓનો તમારે સંપૂર્ણ નાશ કરવો.
हिन्दीव्यवस्थाविवरण २०:१७
परन्तु उनका अवश्य सत्यानाश करना, अर्थात् हित्तियों, एमोरियों, कनानियों, परिज्जियों, हिब्बियों, और यबूसियों को, जैसे कि तेरे परमेश्वर यहोवा ने तुझे आज्ञा दी है;

In context

15Thus you shall do to all the cities which are very far off from you, which are not of the cities of these nations.

16But of the cities of these peoples that the LORD your God gives you for an inheritance, you shall save alive nothing that breathes;

17but you shall utterly destroy them: the Hittite, the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, as the LORD your God has commanded you;

18that they not teach you to follow all their abominations, which they have done for their gods; so would you sin against the LORD your God.

19When you shall besiege a city a long time, in making war against it to take it, you shall not destroy its trees by wielding an ax against them; for you may eat of them. You shall not cut them down, for is the tree of the field man, that it should be besieged by you?
