They will inform the inhabitants of Canaan (God's enemies--see Deuteronomy 9:5-- It is not for your righteousness or for the uprightness of your heart that you are going to possess their land, but it is because of the wickedness of these nations that the Lord your God is driving them out before you, in order to confirm the oath which the Lord swore to your fathers, to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.)
9:5 Oo xaqnimadiinna iyo qummanaanta qalbigiinna midna kuma aydaan hantiyin dalkooda, laakiinse Rabbiga Ilaahiinna ahu quruumahaas sharkoodii aawadiis ayuu idinka hor eryayaa, iyo in Rabbigu sii adkeeyo eraygii uu ugu dhaartay awowayaashiin oo ahaa Ibraahim iyo Isxaaq iyo Yacquub.
