13When the LordH3068 your GodH430 givesH5414 it into your handH3027, 1you shall strikeH5221 allH3605 the 2menH2138 in it with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719.
14HoweverH7534, the womenH802, the childrenH2945, 3the animalsH929, and everythingH3605 that is in the cityH5892, allH3605 of its spoilsH7998, you shall takeH962 as plunderH962 for yourself; and you shall 4useH398 the spoilsH7998 of your enemiesH340 whichH834 the LordH3068 your GodH430 has givenH5414 you.
15ThisH3651 isH3651 whatH3651 you shall doH6213 to allH3605 the citiesH5892 that are veryH3966 farH7350 from you, whichH834 are not of the citiesH5892 of theseH428 nationsH1471 5nearbyH2008.
166OnlyH7534 in the citiesH5892 of theseH428 peoplesH5971 that the LordH3068 your GodH430 is givingH5414 you as an inheritanceH5159, you shall not leaveH2421 anythingH3605 that breathesH5397 aliveH2421.
