10 When you come near to a city to fight against it, then proclaim peace to it. 11 And if the city give you answer of peace, and it open to you, then all the people who are found in it shall be servants and tributaries to you, and they shall serve you. 12 But if it will not surrender to you, but will make war with you, then you shall besiege it; 13 And when the LORD your God has delivered it into your hands, you shall slay all its males with the edge of the sword; 14 But the women and the little ones and the cattle and all that is in the city, even all its spoil, you shall plunder for yourselves; and you shall eat of the spoil of your enemies, which the LORD your God gives you. 15 Thus shall you do to all the cities which are very far off from you, which are not of the cities of these nations.
