Verse 5

It is not for your righteousness, or for the uprightness of your heart, that you go to possess their land: but it is because of the wickedness of these nations that the LORD your God drives them out from before you, and that he may perform the word which the LORD swore to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
