Leviticus 20:24, 26

But I have said to you, “You are to inherit and take possession of their land, and I will give it to you to possess, a land [of plenty] flowing with milk and honey.” I am the LORD your God, who has separated you from the peoples (pagan nations).

You are to be holy to Me; for I the LORD am holy, and have set you apart from the peoples (nations) to be Mine.
