Yet it was I who destroyed the Amorite before them, though his height was like that of the cedars, and he was as strong as the oaks. Yet I destroyed his fruit above and his roots below.

Context

7Wanakanyaga juu ya vichwa vya maskini, kama vile juu ya mavumbi ya nchi, na kukataa haki kwa walioonewa. Baba na mwanawe hushiriki msichana mmoja, kwa hivyo hulinajisi Jina langu takatifu. 8Watu hulala kando ya kila madhabahu juu ya nguo zilizowekwa rehani. Katika nyumba ya mungu wao hunywa mvinyo ulionunuliwa kwa fedha walizotozwa watu. 9“Nilimwangamiza Mwamori mbele yao, ingawa alikuwa mrefu kama mierezi, na mwenye nguvu kama mialoni. Niliyaangamiza matunda yake juu na mizizi yake chini. 10“Niliwapandisha toka Misri, na nikawaongoza miaka arobaini jangwani niwape nchi ya Waamori. 11Pia niliinua manabii kutoka miongoni mwa wana wenu na Wanadhiri kutoka miongoni mwa vijana wenu. Je, hii si kweli, enyi watu wa Israeli?” asema Bwana.
