Parallel
Exodus 23:29
Berean Standard Bible · Westminster Leningrad Codex
I will not drive them out before you in a single year; otherwise the land would become desolate and wild animals would multiply against you.
לֹ֧א אֲגָרְשֶׁ֛נּוּ מִפָּנֶ֖יךָ בְּשָׁנָ֣ה אֶחָ֑ת פֶּן־ תִּהְיֶ֤ה הָאָ֙רֶץ֙ שְׁמָמָ֔ה וְרַבָּ֥ה עָלֶ֖יךָ חַיַּ֥ת הַשָּׂדֶֽה׃
