AΩ
5

Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine heart, dost thou go to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may perform the word which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

ASV

Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thy heart, dost thou go in to possess their land; but for the wickedness of these nations Jehovah thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may establish the word which Jehovah sware unto thy fathers, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.

BBE

Not for your righteousness or because your hearts are upright are you going in to take their land; but because of the evil-doing of these nations the Lord your God is driving them out from before you, and to give effect to his oath to your fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.

GRK

Ουχι δια την δικαιοσυνην σου ουδε δια την ευθυτητα της καρδιας σου εισερχεσαι να κληρονομησης την γην αυτων· αλλα δια την ασεβειαν των εθνων τουτων Κυριος ο Θεος σου εκδιωκει αυτα απ' εμπροσθεν σου, και δια να στερεωση τον λογον, τον οποιον ο Κυριος ωμοσε προς τους πατερας σου, προς τον Αβρααμ, προς τον Ισαακ και προς τον Ιακωβ.

KJV

Not for thy righteousness, or for the uprightness of thine heart, dost thou go to possess their land: but for the wickedness of these nations the Lord thy God doth drive them out from before thee, and that he may perform the word which the Lord sware unto thy fathers, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob.
