RF DEU 20:1 Laws of War.
When you go to war with your enemies, and see horses and chariots,—a people more numerous than yourselves, fear them not,—for your EVER-LIVING GOD is with you, Who brought you from the land of the Mitzeraim.
RF DEU 20:2 And when you are preparing for the war, the Priest shall come forward and address the People and say to them,
RF DEU 20:3 "Listen, Israel! You are now preparing for war with your enemies. Let not your heart shrink. Fear not, nor be startled, nor terrified at them!
RF DEU 20:4 for your EVER-LIVING GOD marches with you, to fight for you against your enemy, and save you."
RF DEU 20:5 The Magistrates, also, shall address the People, saying; "What man is there who has built a new house, and not dedicated it? Let him go and return to his house, for fear he should be killed in the war, and another man should dedicate it.
RF DEU 20:6 "And what man has planted a vineyard and has not reaped it? Let him go and return to his home, for fear he should be killed in the war, and another man reap it.
RF DEU 20:7 "And what man is engaged to a woman, and has not married her? Let him go and return to his home. for fear he should be killed in the war, and another man marry her."
RF DEU 20:8 The Magistrates shall even add to this address to the People, and ask;—"What man fears with a timid heart? Let him go and return to his house, and not depress the hearts of his brothers, like his own heart."
RF DEU 20:9 And when the Magistrates have ceased speaking to the People, then they should appoint officers to the regiments to command the People.
RF DEU 20:10 When you approach a city to war against it, you shall propose peace to it;
RF DEU 20:11 and if they will adopt peace, and open to you, then all the people found in it shall be subject to you, and serve you.
RF DEU 20:12 But if they will not accept peace with you, but make war against you, then assail them;
RF DEU 20:13 for your EVER-LIVING GOD has given them into your hands, and destroy all the men by
RF DEU 20:14 The women and children, however, and the cattle, and all that may be in the city, all the booty, you may seize for yourselves, for you may use the booty of your enemies which your EVER-LIVING GOD gives to you.
RF DEU 20:15 You must do the same to all the cities afar from you, which are not of cities of these nations here.
RF DEU 20:16 But in the cities of these Peoples, that your EVER-LIVING GOD has given to you to divide, you shall not preserve a living breath,
RF DEU 20:17 but devote them; the Hitites, and the Amorites, and the Canaanites, and the Perizites, the Hivites and the Jebusites,—according to the command of your EVER-LIVING GOD.
RF DEU 20:18 The reason is,—so that you may not learn from them to practice all the depravities which they practice against GOD, and thus you would sin against your EVER LIVING GOD.
RF DEU 20:19 When you besiege a city for a long period, warring with it to capture it, you shall not destroy the fruit trees by assailing them with the axe, for you can feed from them, therefore you shall not cut them down, for the trees of the field sprang from the ground before you came to the siege.
RF DEU 20:20 However the trees that you know are not trees for food, you may destroy and fell, and build towers with them against the city which is warring with you, until you subdue it.
