10 When you draw near to a city to fight against it, then you have called to it for peace, 11 and it has been, if it answers you [with] peace, and has opened to you, then it has come to pass, all the people who are found in it are for tributaries to you, and have served you. 12 And if it does not make peace with you, and has made war with you, then you have laid siege against it, 13 and your God YHWH has given it into your hand, and you have struck every male of it by the mouth of the sword. 14 Only, the women, and the infants, and the livestock, and all that is in the city, all its spoil, you seize for yourself, and you have eaten the spoil of your enemies which your God YHWH has given to you. 15 So you do to all the cities which are very far off from you, which are not of the cities of these nations.
