Keluaran 34:11

34:11 “Obey ¹  what I am commanding you this day. I am going to drive out ²  before you the Amorite, the Canaanite, the Hittite, the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite.

Yosua 24:18

24:18 The Lord drove out from before us all the nations, including the Amorites who lived in the land. So we too will worship ³  the Lord, for he is our God!”

[34:11]  ¹ tn The covenant duties begin with this command to “keep well” what is being commanded. The Hebrew expression is “keep for you”; the preposition and the suffix form the ethical dative, adding strength to the imperative.

[34:11]  ² tn Again, this is the futur instans use of the participle.

[24:18]  ³ tn Or “will serve.”
