05:020:012 And if it will make no peace with thee, but will make war
           against thee, then thou shalt besiege it: 

05:020:013 And when the lord thy God hath delivered it into thine hands,
           thou shalt smite every male thereof with the edge of the
           sword: 

05:020:014 But the women, and the little ones, and the cattle, and all
           that is in the city, even all the spoil thereof, shalt thou
           take unto thyself; and thou shalt eat the spoil of thine
           enemies, which the lord thy God hath given thee.

05:020:015 Thus shalt thou do unto all the cities which are very far off
           from thee, which are not of the cities of these nations.

05:020:016 But of the cities of these people, which the lord thy God doth
           give thee for an inheritance, thou shalt save alive nothing
           that breatheth: 

05:020:017 But thou shalt utterly destroy them; namely, the Hittites, and
           the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the Hivites,
           and the Jebusites; as the lord thy God hath commanded thee: 

05:020:018 That they teach you not to do after all their abominations,
           which they have done unto their gods; so should ye sin against
           the lord your God.

05:020:019 When thou shalt besiege a city a long time, in making war
           against it to take it, thou shalt not destroy the trees
           thereof by forcing an axe against them:  for thou mayest eat of
           them, and thou shalt not cut them down (for the tree of the
           field is man’s life) to employ them in the siege: 

05:020:020 Only the trees which thou knowest that they be not trees for
           meat, thou shalt destroy and cut them down; and thou shalt
           build bulwarks against the city that maketh war with thee,
           until it be subdued.

05:021:001 If one be found slain in the land which the lord thy God
           giveth thee to possess it, lying in the field, and it be not
           known who hath slain him: 

05:021:002 Then thy elders and thy judges shall come forth, and they
           shall measure unto the cities which are round about him that
           is slain: 

05:021:003 And it shall be, that the city which is next unto the slain
           man, even the elders of that city shall take an heifer, which
           hath not been wrought with, and which hath not drawn in the
           yoke;

05:021:004 And the elders of that city shall bring down the heifer unto a
           rough valley, which is neither eared nor sown, and shall
           strike off the heifer’s neck there in the valley: 

05:021:005 And the priests the sons of Levi shall come near; for them the
           lord thy God hath chosen to minister unto him, and to bless in
           the name of the lord; and by their word shall every
           controversy and every stroke be tried:
