When thou goest outH3318 to battleH4421 against thine enemiesH341, and seestH7200 horsesH5483, and chariotsH7393, and a peopleH5971 moreH7227 than thou, be not afraidH3372 of them: for the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 is with thee, which brought thee upH5927 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714.
And it shall be, when ye are come nighH7126 unto the battleH4421, that the priestH3548 shall approachH5066 and speakH1696 unto the peopleH5971,
And shall sayH559 unto them, HearH8085, O IsraelH3478, ye approachH7131 this dayH3117 unto battleH4421 against your enemiesH341: let not your heartsH3824 faintH7401, fearH3372 not, and do not trembleH2648, neither be ye terrifiedH6206 becauseH6440 of them; {faint: Heb. be tender} {tremble: Heb. make haste}
For the LORDH3068 your GodH430 is he that goethH1980 with you, to fightH3898 for you against your enemiesH341, to saveH3467 you.
And the officersH7860 shall speakH1696 unto the peopleH5971, sayingH559, What manH376 is there that hath builtH1129 a newH2319 houseH1004, and hath not dedicatedH2596 it? let him goH3212 and returnH7725 to his houseH1004, lest he dieH4191 in the battleH4421, and anotherH312 manH376 dedicateH2596 it.
And what manH376 is he that hath plantedH5193 a vineyardH3754, and hath not yet eatenH2490 of it? let him also goH3212 and returnH7725 unto his houseH1004, lest he dieH4191 in the battleH4421, and anotherH312 manH376 eatH2490 of it. {eaten…: Heb. made it common}
And what manH376 is there that hath betrothedH781 a wifeH802, and hath not takenH3947 her? let him goH3212 and returnH7725 unto his houseH1004, lest he dieH4191 in the battleH4421, and anotherH312 manH376 takeH3947 her.
And the officersH7860 shall speakH1696 furtherH3254 unto the peopleH5971, and they shall sayH559, What manH376 is there that is fearfulH3373 and faintheartedH7390+H3824? let him goH3212 and returnH7725 unto his houseH1004, lest his brethren'sH251 heartH3824 faintH4549 as well as his heartH3824. {faint: Heb. melt}
And it shall be, when the officersH7860 have made an endH3615 of speakingH1696 unto the peopleH5971, that they shall makeH6485 captainsH8269 of the armiesH6635 to leadH7218 the peopleH5971. {to lead…: Heb. to be in the head of the people}
When thou comest nighH7126 unto a cityH5892 to fightH3898 against it, then proclaimH7121 peaceH7965 unto it.
And it shall be, if it make thee answerH6030 of peaceH7965, and openH6605 unto thee, then it shall be, that all the peopleH5971 that is foundH4672 therein shall be tributariesH4522 unto thee, and they shall serveH5647 thee.
And if it will make no peaceH7999 with thee, but will makeH6213 warH4421 against thee, then thou shalt besiegeH6696 it:
And when the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath deliveredH5414 it into thine handsH3027, thou shalt smiteH5221 every maleH2138 thereof with the edgeH6310 of the swordH2719:
But the womenH802, and the little onesH2945, and the cattleH929, and all that is in the cityH5892, even all the spoilH7998 thereof, shalt thou takeH962 unto thyself; and thou shalt eatH398 the spoilH7998 of thine enemiesH341, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath givenH5414 thee. {take: Heb. spoil}
Thus shalt thou doH6213 unto all the citiesH5892 which are veryH3966 far offH7350 from thee, whichH2007 are not of the citiesH5892 of these nationsH1471.
But of the citiesH5892 of these peopleH5971, which the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 doth giveH5414 thee for an inheritanceH5159, thou shalt save aliveH2421 nothing that breathethH5397:
But thou shalt utterlyH2763 destroyH2763 them; namely, the HittitesH2850, and the AmoritesH567, the CanaanitesH3669, and the PerizzitesH6522, the HivitesH2340, and the JebusitesH2983; as the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 hath commandedH6680 thee:
That they teachH3925 you not to doH6213 after all their abominationsH8441, which they have doneH6213 unto their godsH430; so should ye sinH2398 against the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
When thou shalt besiegeH6696 a cityH5892 a longH7227 timeH3117, in making warH3898 against it to takeH8610 it, thou shalt not destroyH7843 the treesH6086 thereof by forcingH5080 an axeH1631 against them: for thou mayest eatH398 of them, and thou shalt not cut them downH3772 (for the treeH6086 of the fieldH7704 is man'sH120 life) to employH935 them in the siegeH6440+H4692: {for the…: or, for, O man, the tree of the field is to be employed in the siege} {to employ…: Heb. to go from before thee}
Only the treesH6086 which thou knowestH3045 that they be not treesH6086 for meatH3978, thou shalt destroyH7843 and cut them downH3772; and thou shalt buildH1129 bulwarksH4692 against the cityH5892 that makethH6213 warH4421 with thee, until it be subduedH3381. {it…: Heb. it come down}

For they are my servantsH5650, which I brought forthH3318 out of the landH776 of EgyptH4714: they shall not be soldH4376 asH4466 bondmenH5650. {as…: Heb. with the sale of a bondman}
Thou shalt not ruleH7287 over him with rigourH6531; but shalt fearH3372 thy GodH430.
Both thy bondmenH5650, and thy bondmaidsH519, which thou shalt have, shall be of the heathenH1471 that are round aboutH5439 you; of them shall ye buyH7069 bondmenH5650 and bondmaidsH519.
Moreover of the childrenH1121 of the strangersH8453 that do sojournH1481 among you, of them shall ye buyH7069, and of their familiesH4940 that are with you, which they begatH3205 in your landH776: and they shall be your possessionH272.
And ye shall take them as an inheritanceH5157 for your childrenH1121 afterH310 you, to inheritH3423 them for a possessionH272; they shall be your bondmenH5647 for everH5769: but over your brethrenH251 the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, ye shall not ruleH7287 oneH376 over anotherH251 with rigourH6531. {they…: Heb. ye shall serve yourselves with them}
And JoshuaH3091 calledH7121 for them, and he spakeH1696 unto them, sayingH559, Wherefore have ye beguiledH7411 us, sayingH559, We are veryH3966 farH7350 from you; when ye dwellH3427 amongH7130 us?
Now therefore ye are cursedH779, and there shall none of you be freedH3772 from being bondmenH5650, and hewersH2404 of woodH6086 and drawersH7579 of waterH4325 for the houseH1004 of my GodH430. {none…: Heb. not be cut off from you}
And JoshuaH3091 madeH5414 them that dayH3117 hewersH2404 of woodH6086 and drawersH7579 of waterH4325 for the congregationH5712, and for the altarH4196 of the LORDH3068, even unto this dayH3117, in the placeH4725 which he should chooseH977. {made: Heb. gave, or, delivered to be}
There was not a cityH5892 that made peaceH7999 with the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, save the HivitesH2340 the inhabitantsH3427 of GibeonH1391: all other they tookH3947 in battleH4421.
For it was of the LORDH3068 to hardenH2388 their heartsH3820, that they should come againstH7125 IsraelH3478 in battleH4421, that he might destroy them utterlyH2763, and that they might have no favourH8467, but that he might destroyH8045 them, as the LORDH3068 commandedH6680 MosesH4872.
And they drave not outH3423 the CanaanitesH3669 that dweltH3427 in GezerH1507: but the CanaanitesH3669 dwellH3427 amongH7130 the EphraimitesH669 unto this dayH3117, and serveH5647 under tributeH4522.
And it came to pass, when IsraelH3478 was strongH2388, that they putH7760 the CanaanitesH3669 to tributeH4522, and did not utterlyH3423 drive them outH3423.
Neither did ZebulunH2074 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of KitronH7003, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of NahalolH5096; but the CanaanitesH3669 dweltH3427 amongH7130 them, and became tributariesH4522.
Neither did AsherH836 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of AcchoH5910, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of ZidonH6721, nor of AhlabH303, nor of AchzibH392, nor of HelbahH2462, nor of AphikH663, nor of RehobH7340:
But the AsheritesH843 dweltH3427 amongH7130 the CanaanitesH3669, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776: for they did not drive them outH3423.
Neither did NaphtaliH5321 drive outH3423 the inhabitantsH3427 of BethshemeshH1053, nor the inhabitantsH3427 of BethanathH1043; but he dweltH3427 amongH7130 the CanaanitesH3669, the inhabitantsH3427 of the landH776: nevertheless the inhabitantsH3427 of BethshemeshH1053 and of BethanathH1043 became tributariesH4522 unto them.
And the AmoritesH567 forcedH3905 the childrenH1121 of DanH1835 into the mountainH2022: for they would not sufferH5414 them to come downH3381 to the valleyH6010:
But the AmoritesH567 wouldH2974 dwellH3427 in mountH2022 HeresH2776 in AijalonH357, and in ShaalbimH8169: yet the handH3027 of the houseH1004 of JosephH3130 prevailedH3513, so that they became tributariesH4522. {prevailed: Heb. was heavy}
Their childrenH1121 that were leftH3498 afterH310 them in the landH776, whom the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 also were not ableH3201 utterly to destroyH2763, upon those did SolomonH8010 levyH5927 a tributeH4522 of bondserviceH5647 unto this dayH3117.
