Deuteronomy 20:12 in Context — Deuteronomy 20

10 Quando te aproximares a uma cidade para combatê-la, lhe oferecerás a paz.

11 E será que, se te responder, Paz, e te abrir, todo o povo que nela for achado te serão tributários, e te servirão.

12 Mas se não fizer paz contigo, e empreender contigo guerra, e a cercares,

13 Logo que o SENHOR teu Deus a entregar em tua mão, ferirás a todo homem seu a fio de espada.

14 Somente as mulheres e as crianças, e os animais, e todo o que houver na cidade, todos os seus despojos, tomarás para ti: e comerás do despojo de teus inimigos, os quais o SENHOR teu Deus te entregou.
