This we will do {H6213} to them; we will even let them live {H2421}, lest wrath {H7110} be upon us, because of the oath {H7621} which we sware {H7650} unto them.

Here is what we will do to them: we will let them live, so that God's anger will not be on us because of the oath we swore to them.

This is how we will treat them: We will let them live, so that no wrath will fall on us because of the oath we swore to them.”

This we will do to them, and let them live; lest wrath be upon us, because of the oath which we sware unto them.
