1And that the laws which were made of God against the seven nations which inhabited the land of Canaan were by this equity to be interpreted and mitigated that if they returned to the true God, & would make peace with the Jews, they should not be destroyed, it manifestly appeareth by that which is written in the xi, chap: of the book of Joshua, namely how those nations were therefore destroyed, because none of them (the Gibeonites only excepted) made peace with the Israelites. For God, to the end he would extinguish them, had hardened their hearts, and therefore they most obstinately fought against the Israelites.
1And that ye lawes whiche were made of God agaynst the seauen nations which inhabited the land of Chanaan were by this equitie to be interpreted and mitigated that if they returned to ye true God, & would make peace with the Iewes, they should not be destroyed, it manifestly appeareth by that whiche is written in the xi, chap: of the booke of Iosua, namely howe those nations were therfore destroyed, bycause none of them (the Gabaonites only excepted) made peace with the Israelites. For God, to the end he would extinguish them, had hardened their hartes, and therfore they most obstinatly fought agaynst the Israelites.

1But the cause why God so hardened their harts was, because their sins were full. Wherefore they believed not as did the Gibeonites, neither adjoined they them selves unto the Israelites. And for that cause they continually resisting them, fought so unluckily, that at length they were clean destroyed. But if so be that they had made peace with the Jews, and not despised their godliness and religion, they should have had the same given them which the Gibeonites had.
