5 The officers should tell the troops, |If you have built a new house but not dedicated it, you may go home. Otherwise, you might die in battle, and someone else will dedicate it. 6 If you have planted a vineyard and not enjoyed the grapes, you may go home. Otherwise, you might die in battle, and someone else will enjoy the grapes. 7 If you are engaged to a woman but have not married her, you may go home. Otherwise, you might die in battle, and someone else will marry her.| 8 The officers should also tell the troops, |If you are afraid or have lost your courage, you may go home. Then you won't ruin the morale of the other Israelites.| Deuteronomy 20:5-8, God's Word Translation. Copyright © 1995 by God's Word to the Nations.
