Deuteronomy 9:3

³וְיָדַעְתָּ הַיּוֹם כִּי יְהוָה אֱלֹהֶיךָ הוּא־הָעֹבֵר לְפָנֶיךָ אֵשׁ אֹכְלָה הוּא יַשְׁמִידֵם וְהוּא יַכְנִיעֵם לְפָנֶיךָ וְהוֹרַשְׁתָּם וְהַאַבַדְתָּם מַהֵר כַּאֲשֶׁר דִּבֶּר יְהוָה לָךְ ׃a

In Deuteronomy 9, Moses powerfully reminds Israel that their impending victory over the Canaanites is not due to their own righteousness, but entirely to God's faithfulness and the wickedness of the nations they are dispossessing. He recounts their history of rebellion, particularly the golden calf incident, to underscore their unworthiness and God's persistent grace. This chapter serves as a stark warning against pride and a profound call to humility, emphasizing that their inheritance is a gift, not an earned reward.
