Deuteronomy 20:10-15
10WhenH3588 you approachH7126H413 a cityH5892 to fightH3898 against itH5921, you are to make an offerH7121H413 of peaceH7965. 11IfH518 they acceptH6030 your offer of peaceH7965 and openH6605 their gates, allH3605 the peopleH5971 there will becomeH1961 forced laborersH4522 to serveH5647 you.
12But ifH518 they refuseH3808 to make peaceH7999 with youH5973 and wageH6213 warH4421 against youH5973, lay siegeH6696 toH5921 that city. 13When the LORDH3068 your GodH430 has delivered itH5414 into your handH3027, you must putH5221 everyH3605 maleH2138 to the swordH6310H2719. 14ButH7535 the womenH802, childrenH2945, livestockH929, and whateverH3605 else isH1961 in the cityH5892—allH3605 its spoilH7998—you may take as plunderH962, and you shall useH398 the spoilH7998 of your enemiesH341 thatH834 the LORDH3068 your GodH430 givesH5414 you. 15This is howH3651 you are to treatH6213 allH3605 the citiesH5892 that are far awayH7350 from youH4480H3966 and do notH3808 belong to theH428H2007 nations nearbyH1471.
