Deuteronomy 20:10-15

10When thou approachest unto a cityH5892 to fightH3898 against it, thou shalt proclaimH7121 peaceH7965 unto it.

11And it shall beH1961, if it make thee answerH6030 of peaceH7965, and openH6605 unto thee, then all the peopleH5971 that areH1961 foundH4672 therein shall beH1961 tributaries unto thee, and they shall serveH5647 thee.

12And if it will not makeH6213 peace with thee, but will makeH6213 warH4421 with thee, then thou shalt besiege it;

13and when Jehovah thy 1GodH430 delivereth it into thy handH3027, thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the swordH2719:

14onlyH7535 the womenH802, and the littleH2945 onesH2945, and the cattleH929, and all that shall beH1961 in the cityH5892, all the spoilH7998 thereof, shalt thou takeH962 as bootyH7998 for thyself; and thou shalt eatH398 the spoilH7998 of thine enemiesH341, which Jehovah thy 2GodH430 giveth thee

15ThusH3651 shalt thou do unto all the citiesH5892 that are veryH3966 farH7350 off from thee, which are not of the citiesH5892 of these nationsH1471.
