Deuteronomy 9:1-5

Not Because of Righteousness

1Hear, O Israel: you are hto cross over the Jordan today, to go in to dispossess nations igreater and mightier than you, cities great and fortified up to heaven, 2a people great and tall, jthe sons of the Anakim, kwhom you know, and of whom you have heard it said, ‘Who can stand before the sons of Anak?’ 3Know therefore today that he who lgoes over before you mas a consuming fire is the Lord your God. He will destroy them and subdue them before you. nSo you shall drive them out and make them perish quickly, as the Lord has promised you.

4 o“Do not say in your heart, after the Lord your God has thrust them out before you, ‘It is because of my righteousness that the Lord has brought me in to possess this land,’ whereas it is pbecause of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord is driving them out before you. 5 qNot because of your righteousness or the uprightness of your heart are you going in to possess their land, but because of the wickedness of these nations the Lord your God is driving them out from before you, and that he may confirm rthe word that the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

Psalms 44:2-3

2you with your own hand wdrove out the nations,
but xthem you planted;
you afflicted the peoples,
but ythem you set free;
3for not zby their own sword did they win the land,
nor did their own arm save them,
but your right hand and your arm,
and aathe light of your face,
abfor you delighted in them.
