Take heed to thyself, lest thou make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land whither thou goest, lest it be for a snare in the midst of thee:

Cave ne umquam cum habitatoribus terræ illius jungas amicitias, quæ sint tibi in ruinam :
Vulgate
πρόσεχε σεαυτῷ μή ποτε θῇς διαθήκην τοῖς ἐνκαθημένοις ἐπὶ τῆς γῆς εἰς ἣν εἰσπορεύῃ εἰς αὐτήν, μή σοι γένηται πρόσκομμα ἐν ὑμῖν.
LXX
