enemies, and see horses and chariots and an army larger than your own, you
shall not be afraid of them, for the Lord your God is with you, who brought you
up out of the land of Egypt. 2And when you draw near to the battle, the
priest shall come forward and speak to the people 3and shall say to them, ‘Hear, O Israel,
today you are drawing near for battle against your enemies: let not your heart
faint. Do not fear or panic or be in dread of them, 4for the Lord your God is he who goes with
you to fight for you against your enemies, to give you the victory.’ 5Then the
officers shall speak to the people, saying, ‘Is there any man who has built a
new house and has not dedicated it? Let him go back to his house, lest he die
in the battle and another man dedicate it. 6And is there any man who has planted a
vineyard and has not enjoyed its fruit? Let him go back to his house, lest he
die in the battle and another man enjoy its fruit. 7And is there any man who has betrothed a
wife and has not taken her? Let him go back to his house, lest he die in the
battle and another man take her.’ 8And the officers shall speak further to
the people, and say, ‘Is there any man who is fearful and fainthearted? Let him
go back to his house, lest he make the heart of his fellows melt like his own.’ 9And when
the officers have finished speaking to the people, then commanders shall be
appointed at the head of the people. 10“When you draw near to a city to fight
against it, offer terms of peace to it. 11And if it responds to you peaceably and it
opens to you, then all the people who are found in it shall do forced labor for
you and shall serve you. 12But if it makes no peace with you, but
makes war against you, then you shall besiege it. 13And when the Lord your God gives it into
your hand, you shall put all its males to the sword, 14but the women and the little ones, the
livestock, and everything else in the city, all its spoil, you shall take as
plunder for yourselves. And you shall enjoy the spoil of your enemies, which
the Lord your God has given you. 15Thus you shall do to all the cities that
are very far from you, which are not cities of the nations here. 16But in
the cities of these peoples that the Lord your God is giving you for an
inheritance, you shall save alive nothing that breathes, 17but you shall devote them to complete
destruction, the Hittites and the Amorites, the Canaanites and the Perizzites,
the Hivites and the Jebusites, as the Lord your God has commanded, 18that
they may not teach you to do according to all their abominable practices that
they have done for their gods, and so you sin against the Lord your God. 19“When
you besiege a city for a long time, making war against it in order to take it,
you shall not destroy its trees by wielding an axe against them. You may eat
from them, but you shall not cut them down. Are the trees in the field human,
that they should be besieged by you? 20Only the trees that you know are not trees
for food you may destroy and cut down, that you may build siegeworks against
the city that makes war with you, until it falls.
Deuteronomy 20 (KJ3) Back
1¶ When you go out to battle
against your enemies, and see horses and chariots, a people more than you, you
shall not fear them. For Jehovah your God is with you, who brought you
up out of the land of Egypt.
2 And it shall be, when you draw
near to battle, the priest shall come and speak to the people,
3 and say to them. Hear, Israel,
you are drawing near today to battle against your enemies. Do not let your
heart be faint; do not fear nor tremble, and nor be terrified before their
faces.
4 For Jehovah your God is He
who is going before you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.
5 And the officers shall speak to
the people, saying, Who is the man that has built a new house, and has
not dedicated it? Let him go and return to his house, that he not die in battle
and another man dedicate it.
6 And who is the man that
has planted a vineyard, and has not used its fruit? Let him go and return to
his house, that he not die in battle, and another man use its fruit.
7 And who is the man who
has betrothed a woman, and has not taken her? Let him go and return to his
house, and he not die in the battle, and another man take her.
8 And the officers shall speak
further to the people, and say, Who is the man who is afraid, and
faint of heart? Let him go and return to his house; then the heart of his
brothers will not melt like his heart.
9 And it shall be, when the
officers have finished speaking to the people, leaders of the armies shall be
appointed at the head of the people.
10¶ When you come near a city to
fight against it, then call to it for peace.
11 And it shall be, if it answers
peace to you, and shall open to you, then it shall be that all the people found
in it shall be forced laborers for you, and shall serve you.
12 And if it shall not make peace
with you, and shall make war with you, then you shall lay siege against it.
13 And Jehovah your God shall give
it into your hand; and you shall strike every male of it by the mouth of the
sword.
14 Only, the women, and the little
ones, and the livestock, and all in the city, all its plunder, you shall seize
for yourself. And you shall eat the plunder of your enemies which Jehovah your
God has given to you.
15 So you shall do to all the
cities very far away from you, which are not of the cities of these
nations.
16 But of the cities of these
peoples which Jehovah your God is giving to you as an inheritance, you
shall not keep alive any that breathes.
17 But destroying you shall destroy
them, the Hittites, and the Amorites, the Canaanites, and the Perizzites, the
Hivites, and the Jebusites, as Jehovah your God has commanded you;
18 so that they may not teach you
to do according to all their disgusting things which they have done for their
gods; and you would sin against Jehovah your God.
19 When you shall lay siege to a
city many days, to fight against it, to capture it, you shall not destroy its
trees in order to force an axe against them. For you shall eat of them, and you
shall not cut them down; for is the tree of the field a man, that it
should be used by you to lay siege?
20 Only the tree which you know not
to be a fruit tree, you may destroy it, and may cut it down, and may
build a bulwark against the city making war with you, until you have subdued
it.

1“When you go out to battle against your
enemies and see horses and chariots and people more numerous than you, do not

Egypt, is with you. 2“When you are approaching the battle, the priest
shall come near and speak to the people. 3“He shall say to them, ‘Hear, O Israel,
you are approaching the battle against your enemies today. Do not be
fainthearted. Do not be afraid, or panic, or tremble before them, 4for the
Lord your God is the one who goes with you, to fight for you against your
enemies, to save you.’ 5“The officers also shall speak to the people,
saying, ‘Who is the man that has built a new house and has not dedicated it?
Let him depart and return to his house, otherwise he might die in the battle
and another man would dedicate it. 6‘Who is the man that has planted a
vineyard and has not begun to use its fruit? Let him depart and return to his
house, otherwise he might die in the battle and another man would begin to use
its fruit. 7‘And who is the man that is engaged to a woman and
has not married her? Let him depart and return to his house, otherwise he might
die in the battle and another man would marry her.’ 8“Then the officers shall speak further to
the people and say, ‘Who is the man that is afraid and fainthearted? Let him
depart and return to his house, so that he might not make his brothers’ hearts
melt like his heart.’ 9“When the officers have finished speaking to the
people, they shall appoint commanders of armies at the head of the people. 10“When
you approach a city to fight against it, you shall offer it terms of peace. 11“If it
agrees to make peace with you and opens to you, then all the people who are
found in it shall become your forced labor and shall serve you. 12“However,
if it does not make peace with you, but makes war against you, then you shall
besiege it. 13“When the Lord your God gives it into your hand,
you shall strike all the men in it with the edge of the sword. 14“Only
the women and the children and the animals and all that is in the city, all its
spoil, you shall take as booty for yourself; and you shall use the spoil of
your enemies which the Lord your God has given you. 15“Thus you shall do to all the cities that
are very far from you, which are not of the cities of these nations nearby. 16“Only
in the cities of these peoples that the Lord your God is giving you as an
inheritance, you shall not leave alive anything that breathes. 17“But
you shall utterly destroy them, the Hittite and the Amorite, the Canaanite and
the Perizzite, the Hivite and the Jebusite, as the Lord your God has commanded
you, 18so that they may not teach you to do according to all their detestable
things which they have done for their gods, so that you would sin against the
Lord your God. 19“When you besiege a city a long time, to make war
against it in order to capture it, you shall not destroy its trees by swinging
an axe against them; for you may eat from them, and you shall not cut them
down. For is the tree of the field a man, that it should be besieged by you? 20“Only
the trees which you know are not fruit trees you shall destroy and cut down,
that you may construct siegeworks against the city that is making war with you
until it falls.

9And the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, 10“Speak
to the people of Israel and say to them, When you cross the Jordan into the
land of Canaan, 11then you shall select cities to be cities of
refuge for you, that the manslayer who kills any person without intent may flee
there. 12The cities shall be for you a refuge from the avenger, that the manslayer
may not die until he stands before the congregation for judgment. 13And the
cities that you give shall be your six cities of refuge. 14You shall give three cities beyond the
Jordan, and three cities in the land of Canaan, to be cities of refuge. 15These
six cities shall be for refuge for the people of Israel, and for the stranger
and for the sojourner among them, that anyone who kills any person without
intent may flee there. 16“But if he struck him down with an iron object, so
that he died, he is a murderer. The murderer shall be put to death. 17And if
he struck him down with a stone tool that could cause death, and he died, he is
a murderer. The murderer shall be put to death. 18Or if he struck him down with a wooden
tool that could cause death, and he died, he is a murderer. The murderer shall
be put to death. 19The avenger of blood shall himself put the
murderer to death; when he meets him, he shall put him to death. 20And if
he pushed him out of hatred or hurled something at him, lying in wait, so that
he died, 21or in enmity struck him down with his hand, so
that he died, then he who struck the blow shall be put to death. He is a
murderer. The avenger of blood shall put the murderer to death when he meets
him. 22“But if he pushed him suddenly without enmity, or hurled anything on him
without lying in wait 23or used a stone that could cause death, and
without seeing him dropped it on him, so that he died, though he was not his
enemy and did not seek his harm, 24then the congregation shall judge between
the manslayer and the avenger of blood, in accordance with these rules. 25And the
congregation shall rescue the manslayer from the hand of the avenger of blood,
and the congregation shall restore him to his city of refuge to which he had
fled, and he shall live in it until the death of the high priest who was
anointed with the holy oil. 26But if the manslayer shall at any time go
beyond the boundaries of his city of refuge to which he fled, 27and the
avenger of blood finds him outside the boundaries of his city of refuge, and
the avenger of blood kills the manslayer, he shall not be guilty of blood. 28For he
must remain in his city of refuge until the death of the high priest, but after
the death of the high priest the manslayer may return to the land of his
possession.

has thrown at him by lying in wait, and he dies;

hand in enmity, and he dies, the striker shall certainly be made to die; he is
a murderer. When the avenger of blood meets him he shall cause the murderer to
die.

him without enmity, or has thrown at him anything without lying in wait;

seeing, by which he dies, and has caused it to fall on him, and he dies, and he
is not an enemy to him, nor seeking his evil;

judge between the striker and the avenger of blood, by these judgments.

deliver the manslayer out of the avenger of blood’s hand. And the congregation
shall return him to the city of refuge to which he had fled, and he shall live
in it until the high priest dies, he who was anointed with the holy oil.

out from the border of the city of his refuge, there to which he has

threw something at him without lying in wait, 23or with any deadly object of stone, and
without seeing it dropped on him so that he died, while he was not his enemy

[1] “Careful studies” is not at all merely an archaic expression. People can come to many kinds of harm in many ways, often accidentally. The sixth Commandment requires of us, in many situations, careful consideration and planning so as to prevent and minimize such harm. In the Mosaic Law, God did not leave unpunished those guilty of human death, even when the cause was purely accidental (Numbers 35:9–28 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB) ).
[2] From the context of this and the next question, it is clear that “life” includes not only life as opposed to death, but also all that pertains to a person’s living out his or her life, such as freedom and well-being.
[3] chastity: avoidance of sexual sin, not avoidance of relations with one’s own spouse
[4] To avoid temptation.
[5] temperance: control of all bodily appetites, especially with respect to alcohol, which lowers inhibitions and dulls the conscience and thus, in excess, leads to sin. See also Ezekiel 16:49–50 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB) .
[6] continence: self-control over one’s body, in this context biblical self-control over sexual activity
[7] Of husbands and wives.
[8] This appears to be an encouragement to avoid idleness, by which all manner of temptations may enter. See Ezekiel 16:49–50 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB) .
[9] unnatural lust: in this context, any sexual desire or interaction between other than a man and a woman
[10] For the incontinent. See “continence” in footnote above.
[12] Gluttony teaches one to gratify the lusts of the flesh. See also Ezekiel 16:49–50 (ESV KJ3 NASB WEB) .
