12 But if they do not accept your terms of peace and they want to make war with you, then you shall lay siege against it.
13 And Yahweh your God will give it into your hand, and you shall kill all its males with the edge of the sword.
14 Only the women and the little children and the domestic animals and all that shall be in the city, all of its spoil you may loot for yourselves, and you may enjoy the spoil of your enemies that Yahweh you God has given to you.
15 Thus you shall do to all the far cities from you, which are not from the cities of these nations located nearby.
16 But from the cities of these peoples that Yahweh your God is giving to you as an inheritance, you shall not let anything live that breathes.
17 Rather, you shall utterly destroy them, the Hittites and the Amorites, the Canaanites and the Perizzites, the Hivites, and the Jebusites, just as Yahweh your God has commanded you,
18 so that they may not teach you to do like all their detestable things that they do for their gods and thereby you sin against Yahweh your God.
