7`And who [is] the man that hath betrothed a woman, and hath not taken her? -- let him go and turn back to his house, lest he die in battle, and another man take her.
8`And the authorities have added to speak unto the people, and said, Who [is] the man that is afraid and tender of heart? -- let him go and turn back to his house, and the heart of his brethren doth not melt like his heart;
9and it hath come to pass as the authorities finish to speak unto the people, that they have appointed princes of the hosts at the head of the people.
10`When thou drawest near unto a city to fight against it, then thou hast called unto it for Peace,
11and it hath been, if Peace it answer thee, and hath opened to thee, then it hath come to pass -- all the people who are found in it are to thee for tributaries, and have served thee.
12`And if it doth not make peace with thee, and hath made with thee war, then thou hast laid siege against it,
13and Jehovah thy God hath given it into thy hand, and thou hast smitten every male of it by the mouth of the sword.
