19“WhenH3588 you besiegeH6696 a cityH5892 a longH7227 timeH3117, to makeH3898 warH3898 againstH5921 it in order to captureH8610 it, you shall not destroyH7843 its treesH6086 by swingingH5080 an axeH1631 againstH5921 them; for you may eatH398 from them, and you shall not cutH3772 them downH3772. 1For is the treeH6086 of the fieldH7704 a manH120, that it should 2be besiegedH4692 by you?

20OnlyH7534 the treesH6086 whichH834 you knowH3045 3are not fruitH3978 treesH6086 you shall destroyH7843 and cutH3772 downH3772, that you may constructH1129 siegeworksH4692 againstH5921 the cityH5892 that is makingH6213 warH4421 with you untilH5704 it fallsH3381.
