ગુજરાતીનિર્ગમન ૩૪:૧૨
જો, જે દેશમાં તું જાય તેના રહેવાસીઓ સાથે તું કરાર ન કરતો, રખેને તારી મધ્યે તે ફાંદારૂપ થઈ પડે.
हिन्दीनिर्गमन ३४:१२
इसलिए सावधान रहना कि जिस देश में तू जानेवाला है उसके निवासियों से वाचा न बाँधना; कहीं ऐसा न हो कि वह तेरे लिये फंदा ठहरे।

In context

10He said, “Behold, I make a covenant: before all your people I will do marvels, such as have not been worked in all the earth, nor in any nation; and all the people among whom you are shall see the work of the LORD; for it is an awesome thing that I do with you.

11Observe that which I command you today. Behold, I will drive out before you the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

12Be careful, lest you make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land where you are going, lest it be for a snare among you;

13but you shall break down their altars, and dash in pieces their pillars, and you shall cut down their Asherah poles;

14for you shall worship no other god; for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God.
