Deuteronomy 20:1-9

1When thou goest out to warH4421 against thine enemiesH341, and seest horsesH5483, and chariotsH7393, [and] a peopleH5971 moreH4480 numerousH7227 than thou, thou shalt not fearH3372 them; for Jehovah thy 1GodH430 is with thee, who broughtH3318 thee up out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.

2And it shall beH1961, when ye approach unto the battleH4421, that the priestH3548 shall drawH7126 near and speakH1696 unto the peopleH5971,

3and shall sayH559 unto them, HearH8085, IsraelH3478, ye are approaching this dayH3117 unto battleH4421 against your enemiesH341: let not your heartsH3824 faint, fearH3372 not, and do not tremble, neither be afraidH3372 of them;

4for Jehovah your 2GodH430 is he that goeth with you, to fightH3898 for you against your enemiesH341, to saveH3467 you.

5And the officersH7860 shall speakH1696 unto the peopleH5971, sayingH559, What manH376 is there that hath builtH1129 a newH2319 houseH1004, and hath not dedicated it? let him goH7725 and returnH7725 unto his houseH1004, lestH6435 he dieH4191 in the battleH4421, and another manH376 dedicate it.

6And what manH376 is there that hath plantedH5193 a vineyardH3754, and hath not eaten of it? let him goH7725 and returnH7725 unto his houseH1004, lestH6435 he dieH4191 in the battleH4421, and another manH376 eat of it.

7And what manH376 is there that hath betrothedH781 a wifeH802, and hath not takenH3947 her? let him goH7725 and returnH7725 unto his houseH1004, lestH6435 he dieH4191 in the battleH4421, and another manH376 takeH3947 her.

8And the officersH7860 shall speakH1696 further unto the peopleH5971, and shall sayH559, What manH376 is there that is timid and faint-hearted? let him goH7725 and returnH7725 unto his houseH1004, lest his brethren's heartH3824 meltH4549 as well as his heartH3824.

9And it shall beH1961, when the officers have endedH3615 speakingH1696 unto the peopleH5971, that they shall place captains of the hostsH6635 at the headH7218 of the peopleH5971.
