Verse 10 is found in chapter 12 of Deuteronomy. Israel must destroy the Canaanite worship sites and seek the place God will choose to establish his name. The chapter opposes the tendency to copy the nations’ religious practices and establishes the centralization of worship around the chosen sanctuary. Legitimate worship is therefore connected not to any place considered sacred by human initiative, but to the order established by God.

Ihr werdet aber über den Jordan gehen und in dem Lande wohnen, das euch der HERR, euer Gott, wird zum Erbe austeilen, und er wird euch Ruhe geben von allen euren Feinden um euch her, und ihr werdet sicher wohnen.
Mas pasaréis el Jordán, y habitaréis en la tierra que Jehová vuestro Dios os hace heredar, y él os dará reposo de todos vuestros enemigos alrededor, y habitaréis seguros.
Cruzarán el Jordán y habitarán en la tierra que Jehová su Dios les da como herencia. Él les dará descanso de todos sus enemigos alrededor, y habitarán seguros.
Mais vous passerez le Jourdain, et vous habiterez dans le pays dont l'Eternel, votre Dieu, vous mettra en possession; il vous donnera du repos, après vous avoir délivrés de tous vos ennemis qui vous entourent, et vous vous établirez en sécurité.
Ma, quando voi sarete passati il Giordano, e abiterete nel paese il quale il Signore Iddio vostro vi dà a possedere, e avrete requie da tutti i vostri nemici d’ogn’intorno, e abiterete in sicurtà;
Mas passareis o Jordão, e habitareis na terra que vos fará herdar o SENHOR vosso Deus; e vos dará repouso de todos os vossos inimigos em redor, e morareis seguros.
你們過了 約旦河 ,住在耶和華─你們上帝給你們承受為業的地;他又使你們得享太平,不受四圍一切仇敵擾亂,使你們安然居住。
