1
When
thou
goest
out
to
battle
against
thine
enemies,
and
seest
horses,
and
chariots,
[and]
a
people
more
than
thou,
be
not
afraid
of
them:
for
the
LORD
thy
God
[is]
with
thee,
which
brought
thee
up
out
of
the
land
of
Egypt.
2
And
it
shall
be,
when
ye
are
come
nigh
unto
the
battle,
that
the
priest
shall
approach
and
speak
unto
the
people,
3
And
shall
say
unto
them,
Hear,
O
Israel,
ye
approach
this
day
unto
battle
against
your
enemies:
let
not
your
hearts
faint,
fear
not,
and
do
not
tremble,
neither
be
ye
terrified
because
of
them;
4
For
the
LORD
your
God
[is]
he
that
goeth
with
you,
to
fight
for
you
against
your
enemies,
to
save
you.
5
And
the
officers
shall
speak
unto
the
people,
saying,
What
man
[is
there]
that
hath
built
a
new
house,
and
hath
not
dedicated
it?
let
him
go
and
return
to
his
house,
lest
he
die
in
the
battle,
and
another
man
dedicate
6
And
what
man
[is
he]
that
hath
planted
a
vineyard,
and
hath
not
[yet]
eaten
of
it?
let
him
[also]
go
and
return
unto
his
house,
lest
he
die
in
the
battle,
and
another
man
eat
of
7
And
what
man
[is
there]
that
hath
betrothed
a
wife,
and
hath
not
taken
her?
let
him
go
and
return
unto
his
house,
lest
he
die
in
the
battle,
and
another
man
take
her.
8
And
the
officers
shall
speak
further
unto
the
people,
and
they
shall
say,
What
man
[is
there
that
is]
fearful
and
fainthearted?
let
him
go
and
return
unto
his
house,
lest
his
brethren’s
heart
faint
as
well
as
his
heart.
9
And
it
shall
be,
when
the
officers
have
made
an
end
of
speaking
unto
the
people,
that
they
shall
make
captains
of
the
armies
to
lead
the
people.
10
When
thou
comest
nigh
unto
a
city
to
fight
against
it,
then
proclaim
peace
unto
11
And
it
shall
be,
if
it
make
thee
answer
of
peace,
and
open
unto
thee,
then
it
shall
be,
[that]
all
the
people
[that
is]
found
therein
shall
be
tributaries
unto
thee,
and
they
shall
serve
thee.
12
And
if
it
will
make
no
peace
with
thee,
but
will
make
war
against
thee,
then
thou
shalt
besiege
13
And
when
the
LORD
thy
God
hath
delivered
it
into
thine
hands,
thou
shalt
smite
every
male
thereof
with
the
edge
of
the
sword:
14
But
the
women,
and
the
little
ones,
and
the
cattle,
and
all
that
is
in
the
city,
[even]
all
the
spoil
thereof,
shalt
thou
take
unto
thyself;
and
thou
shalt
eat
the
spoil
of
thine
enemies,
which
the
LORD
thy
God
hath
given
thee.
15
Thus
shalt
thou
do
unto
all
the
cities
[which
are]
very
far
off
from
thee,
which
[are]
not
of
the
cities
of
these
nations.
16
But
of
the
cities
of
these
people,
which
the
LORD
thy
God
doth
give
thee
[for]
an
inheritance,
thou
shalt
save
alive
nothing
that
breatheth:
17
But
thou
shalt
utterly
destroy
them;
[namely],
the
Hittites,
and
the
Amorites,
the
Canaanites,
and
the
Perizzites,
the
Hivites,
and
the
Jebusites;
as
the
LORD
thy
God
hath
commanded
thee:
18
That
they
teach
you
not
to
do
after
all
their
abominations,
which
they
have
done
unto
their
gods;
so
should
ye
sin
against
the
LORD
your
God.
19
When
thou
shalt
besiege
a
city
a
long
time,
in
making
war
against
it
to
take
it,
thou
shalt
not
destroy
the
trees
thereof
by
forcing
an
axe
against
them:
for
thou
mayest
eat
of
them,
and
thou
shalt
not
cut
them
down
(for
the
tree
of
the
field
[is]
man’s
[life])
to
employ
[them]
in
the
siege:
20
Only
the
trees
which
thou
knowest
that
they
[be]
not
trees
for
meat,
thou
shalt
destroy
and
cut
them
down;
and
thou
shalt
build
bulwarks
against
the
city
that
maketh
war
with
thee,
until
it
be
subdued.
