Joshua 23:12-14
Contemporary English Version
12-13 Don't ever turn your backs on him by marrying people from the nations that are left in the land. Don't even make friends with them.

And finally, none of you will be left in this good land that the Lord has given you.
14 I will soon die, as everyone must. But deep in your hearts you know that the Lord has kept every promise he ever made to you. Not one of them has been broken.
