The above is wrong. Just read the old covenant.

The Lord said, here and now I make a covenant. In full view of all your
people I will do such miracles as have never been performed in all the world or in
any nation. All the surrounding peoples shall see the work of the Lord, for
fearful is that which I will do for you. Observe all I command you this day and
I for my part will drive out before you the Amorites and the Canaanites and
the Hittites and the Perizzites and the Hivites and the Jebusites. Be careful
not to make a covenant with the natives of the land against which you are going,
or they will prove a snare in your midst.
 
 No: you shall demolish their altars, smash their sacred pillars and cut down
their sacred poles.”

Exodus 34 (10-14)
