Deuteronomy 7:2-4
and when the Lord your God delivers them over to you and you defeat them, you must completely destroy them. Make no treaty with them and show them no mercy.Do not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons,because they will turn your sons away from Me to worship other gods. Then the Lord’s anger will burn against you, and He will swiftly destroy you.

Ezra 9:10-13
Now, our God, what can we say in light of this? For we have abandoned the commandsYou gave through Your servants the prophets, saying:“ The land you are entering to possess is an impure land. The surrounding peoples have filled it from end to end with their uncleanness by their impurity and detestable practices.So do not give your daughters to their sons in marriage or take their daughters for your sons. Never seek their peace or prosperity, so that you will be strong, eat the good things of the land, and leave it as an inheritance to your sons forever.”After all that has happened to us because of our evil deeds and terrible guilt— though You, our God, have punished us less than our sins deserve and have allowed us to survive—
-
Psalms 106:34-40
They did not destroy the peoples as the Lord had commanded thembut mingled with the nations and adopted their ways.They served their idols, which became a snare to them.They sacrificed their sons and daughters to demons.They shed innocent blood— the blood of their sons and daughters whom they sacrificed to the idols of Canaan; so the land became polluted with blood.They defiled themselves by their actions and prostituted themselves by their deeds.Therefore the Lord’s anger burned against His people, and He abhorred His own inheritance.
-
Deuteronomy 20:16-18
However, you must not let any living thing survive among the cities of these people the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance.You must completely destroy them— the Hittite, Amorite, Canaanite, Perizzite, Hivite, and Jebusite— as the Lord your God has commanded you,so that they won’t teach you to do all the detestable things they do for their gods, and you sin against the Lord your God.

-
Exodus 34:12-16
Be careful not to make a treaty with the inhabitants of the land that you are going to enter; otherwise, they will become a snare among you.Instead, you must tear down their altars, smash their sacred pillars, and chop down their Asherah poles.You are never to bow down to another god because Yahweh, being jealous by nature, is a jealous God.“ Do not make a treaty with the inhabitants of the land, or else when they prostitute themselves with their gods and sacrifice to their gods, they will invite you, and you will eat their sacrifices.Then you will take some of their daughters as brides for your sons. Their daughters will prostitute themselves with their gods and cause your sons to prostitute themselves with their gods.

-
Jeremiah 2:31-33
Evil generation, pay attention to the word of the Lord! Have I been a wilderness to Israel or a land of dense darkness? Why do My people claim,“ We will go where we want; we will no longer come to You”?Can a young woman forget her jewelry or a bride her wedding sash? Yet My people have forgotten Me for countless days.How skillfully you pursue love; you also teach evil women your ways.
-
Psalms 78:55-58
He drove out nations before them. He apportioned their inheritance by lot and settled the tribes of Israel in their tents.But they rebelliously tested the Most High God, for they did not keep His decrees.They treacherously turned away like their fathers; they became warped like a faulty bow.They enraged Him with their high places and provoked His jealousy with their carved images.
-
Deuteronomy 7:25-26
You must burn up the carved images of their gods. Don’t covet the silver and gold on the images and take it for yourself, or else you will be ensnared by it, for it is abhorrent to the Lord your God.You must not bring any abhorrent thing into your house, or you will be set apart for destruction like it. You are to utterly detest and abhor it, because it is set apart for destruction.

2 Corinthians 6 14-2 Corinthians 6 17
Do not be mismatched with unbelievers. For what partnership is there between righteousness and lawlessness? Or what fellowship does light have with darkness?What agreement does Christ have with Belial? Or what does a believer have in common with an unbeliever?And what agreement does God’s sanctuary have with idols? For we are the sanctuary of the living God, as God said: I will dwell among them and walk among them, and I will be their God, and they will be My people.Therefore, come out from among them and be separate, says the Lord; do not touch any unclean thing, and I will welcome you.
-
Deuteronomy 12:2-3
Destroy completely all the places where the nations that you are driving out worship their gods— on the high mountains, on the hills, and under every green tree.Tear down their altars, smash their sacred pillars, burn up their Asherah poles, cut down the carved images of their gods, and wipe out their names from every place.

After these things had been done, the leaders approached me and said:“ The people of Israel, the priests, and the Levites have not separated themselves from the surrounding peoples whose detestable practices are like those of the Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Jebusites, Ammonites, Moabites, Egyptians, and Amorites.Indeed, the Israelite men have taken some of their daughters as wives for themselves and their sons, so that the holy seed has become mixed with the surrounding peoples. The leaders and officials have taken the lead in this unfaithfulness!”When I heard this report, I tore my tunic and robe, pulled out some of the hair from my head and beard, and sat down devastated.
-
Jeremiah 7:23-28
However, I did give them this command: Obey Me, and then I will be your God, and you will be My people. You must follow every way I command you so that it may go well with you.Yet they didn’t listen or pay attention but followed their own advice and according to their own stubborn, evil heart. They went backward and not forward.Since the day your ancestors came out of the land of Egypt until this day, I have sent all My servants the prophets to you time and time again.However, they wouldn’t listen to Me or pay attention but became obstinate; they did more evil than their ancestors.“ When you speak all these things to them, they will not listen to you. When you call to them, they will not answer you.You must therefore declare to them: This is the nation that would not listen to the voice of the Lord their God and would not accept discipline. Truth has perished— it has disappeared from their mouths.

Exodus 23:32-33
