Deuteronomy 9:5
Not for your righteousness or for the uprightness of your heart do you go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD your God does drive them out from before you, and that he may establish the word which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.Deuteronomy 9:5 · WEB

- તમારા ન્યાયીપણાને લીધે કે તમારા અંત:કરણના પ્રમાણિકપણાને લીધે તમે તેઓના દેશનું વતન પામવાને જાઓ છો એમ તો નહિ; પણ એ લોકોની દુષ્ટતાને લીધે તથા જે વચન યહોવાહે સમ ખાઈને તમારા પિતૃઓને એટલે ઇબ્રાહિમ, ઇસહાક અને યાકૂબને આપ્યું હતું તે પૂર્ણ કરવા માટે યહોવાહ તમારા ઈશ્વર તેઓને તમારી આગળથી નસાડી મૂકે છે.
- हिन्दी — व्यवस्थाविवरण ९:५
- तू जो उनके देश का अधिकारी होने के लिये जा रहा है, इसका कारण तेरा धार्मिकता या मन की सिधाई नहीं है; तेरा परमेश्वर यहोवा जो उन जातियों को तेरे सामने से निकालता है, उसका कारण उनकी दुष्टता है, और यह भी कि जो वचन उसने अब्राहम, इसहाक, और याकूब, अर्थात् तेरे पूर्वजों को शपथ खाकर दिया था, उसको वह पूरा करना चाहता है।
In context
3Know therefore today that the LORD your God is he who goes over before you as a devouring fire. He will destroy them and he will bring them down before you. So you shall drive them out and make them perish quickly, as the LORD has spoken to you.
4Don’t say in your heart, after the LORD your God has thrust them out from before you, “For my righteousness the LORD has brought me in to possess this land;” because the LORD drives them out before you because of the wickedness of these nations.
5Not for your righteousness or for the uprightness of your heart do you go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations the LORD your God does drive them out from before you, and that he may establish the word which the LORD swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.
6Know therefore that the LORD your God doesn’t give you this good land to possess for your righteousness, for you are a stiff-necked people.
7Remember, and don’t forget, how you provoked the LORD your God to wrath in the wilderness. From the day that you left the land of Egypt until you came to this place, you have been rebellious against the LORD.
