< Deuteronomy 20 >

1 “If you go out to battle against your enemies, and you see horsemen and chariots, and that the multitude of your adversary’s army is greater than your own, you shall not fear them. For the Lord your God, who led you away from the land of Egypt, is with you.
Hagi ha' vahetaminema ha'ma hunaku'ma vanuta, hosi afuzmine, karisizmine, rama'a ha' vahetamima mani'nesageta kesuta, korora osiho. Na'ankure Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'ma Isipiti'ma tamavre atiramino tamavreno'ma e'nea Anumzamo'a tamagrane mani'ne.
2 Then, as the battle now draws near, the priest shall stand before the front ranks, and he shall speak to the people in this manner:
Hagi ha'ma hunaku'ma urava'oma hanageno'a, pristi vahe'mo eramavugateno amanage huno tamasamino,
3 ‘Listen, O Israel! Today you engage in a battle against your enemies. Do not let your heart be overwhelmed with fear. Do not be apprehensive. Do not yield. You should have no dread of them.
Israeli vahetamimota antahiho, ha' vahetamine ha'hunaku erava'o hazanki atrenkeno tamasumnamo'a fakro fakroa osina, tamahirahikura huta ha' vahetamigura korora osiho.
4 For the Lord your God is in your midst, and he will contend against your enemies on your behalf, so that he may rescue you from peril.’
Na'ankure Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'a tamagrane nevuno, tamagri kaziga anteno ha' vahetmia hara huzmantesigeta hara huzmagateregahaze.
5 Likewise, the officers shall proclaim, throughout every company, in the hearing of the soldiers: ‘What man is there who has built a new house, and has not dedicated it? Let him go and return to his house, lest perhaps he may die in the battle, and another man may dedicate it.
Hagi sondia vahete (ofisa) kva vahe'mo'za sondia vahera amanage hu'za zamasamigahaze, kasefa noma kinte'neta ana noma nunamuma huta Anumzamofo azampima onte'nesuta, ete nontega viho. Na'ankure ha' kampima tamahena frisageno'a, tusi'a amuho huta kinte'nesaza nona, ru vahe'mo'za ana nompina manigahaze.
6 What man is there who has planted a vineyard, and has not yet caused it to be common, so that all may eat from it? Let him go, and return to his house, lest perhaps he may die in the battle, and another man may carry out his office.
Hagi kasefa waini hoza kri'neta, ana hozafinti tagita one'nesamota, ete kumatega viho. Ha'ma hanafima tamahesageno ru vahe'mo'zama ana waini hozatamifinti'ma tagi'za nesageno'a, knarera osugahie.
7 What man is there, who has betrothed a wife, and has not taken her? Let him go, and return to his house, lest perhaps he may die in battle, and another man may take her.’
Hagi izano a' erigahane hu'za huhampri' tamante'nesimota ete kumatega vuta umani'neta ana ara eriho. Ru ha'pima tamahesageno ru vahe'mo'za ana a'ma erisageno'a, haviza hugahie.
8 After these things have been declared, they shall add the remainder, and shall say to the people: ‘What man is there who is overwhelmed by fear and is fainthearted? Let him go, and return to his house, lest he cause the hearts of his brothers to fear, just as he himself has been thoroughly stricken with fear.’
Hagi mago'ane sondia vahe'mofo kva vahe'mo'za amanage hiho, koro'ma hanankeno kasumnamo'ma fakro fakroma hanimoka, mago'a tagri sondia vahetimofo zamazeri koro hugahazanki, ete kumatega viho.
9 And when the officers of the army have become silent, and have completed their speech, each one shall prepare his unit to wage war.
Hagi vugota sondia kva vahe'mo'za nanekema huvaretenu'za, sondia vahera kevure kevure refko hunezmante'za kva vahe zamazeri oti'nage'za, mago mago kevurera kegava hugahaze.
10 When, at any time, you approach a city to fight against it, you shall first offer peace to it.
Hagi mago kumate'ma ha'ma hunaku'ma vurava'o hanuta, ese'zana tamarimpa fruge huta hara huormantesunanki amne kumatmia tamigahazo huta zamantahigeho.
11 If they receive it, and open the gates to you, then all the people who are in it shall be saved, and they shall serve you by paying tribute.
Hagi zamagrama ana kema antahi'za mago zamarimpa hu'za kuma kafazmima anagisageta ufresuta, ana kumapi vahera maka'mokizmigura hinke'za kazokazo eri'za vahe mani vagareho.
12 But if they are not willing to enter into an agreement, and they begin to act against you in warfare, then you shall besiege it.
Hianagi ana kumapi vahe'mo'zama i'o nehu'za ha'ma huramantena, ana kumapi vahera ha' huzmanteho.
13 And when the Lord your God will have delivered it into your hands, you shall strike down anyone who is in it, of the male gender, with the edge of the sword,
Hagi ana'ma hanageno'ma Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'ma ana kuma'ma tamazampima antena, maka venene'age bainati kazinteti zamahe frivagareho.
14 but not the women and young children, nor the cattle and the other things that are within the city. And you shall divide all the plunder to the soldiers, and you shall eat the spoils from your enemies, which the Lord your God will give to you.
Hianagi maka a'nene, mofavreramine, zagagafane, maka zantamina ana kumapinti'ma erisaza zantamina tamagri su'ane. Hagi Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo tamigahiankita, e'nerita musena hugahaze.
15 So shall you do to all the cities which are at a great distance from you, those which are not among the cities that you shall receive as a possession.
Hianagi tamagri kuma'mofo afete'ma me'nenia kumatmi anara hiho. Hanki anama ufre'naza mopafi kumatmina anara osiho.
16 But among those cities which shall be given to you, you shall not permit anyone at all to live.
Hianagi Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'ma tamami'nia mopafima me'nea kumatamimpima vahe'ene zagagafane zmasimu'ma eri'za nemanisaza zagaramina, magore hutma ozmatreta zamahehna hiho.
17 Instead, you shall put them to death with the edge of the sword, specifically: the Hittite and the Amorite and the Canaanite, the Perizzite and the Hivite and the Jebusite, just as the Lord your God has commanded you.
Hagi Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamo'ma hu'nea kante anteta, mika Hiti vahe'ma, Amori vahe'ma, Kenani vahe'ma, Perisi vahe'ma, Hivi vahe'ma, Jebusi vahera zamahe hana hiho.
18 Otherwise, they may teach you to do all the abominations which they have committed for their own gods. And then you would sin against the Lord your God.
E'ina hinke'za kasrino havizama hu'nea avu'ava'ma hu'za havi anumza zmimofoma mono hunentaza zamavu'zmavara rempia huoraminketa, Ra Anumzana tamagri Anumzamofo avurera kumira osugahaze.
19 When you will have besieged a city for a long time, and you will have encircled it with fortifications, so that you may fight against it, you shall not cut down trees from which one is able to eat, neither shall you cause devastation with axes to the surrounding region. For it is a tree, and not a man. It is not able to increase the number of those who are fighting against you.
Mago kuma'ma za'zate'ma avazagi kagita ha'ma huzmantesuta, nezafa ragama renentea zafaramina raga'a negahazanki amne zampina sa'umenura antagi otreho. Na'ankure zafaramina e'i tamagri ha' vahera omani'naze!
20 But if there are any trees which are not fruitful, but are wild, and if these are fit for other uses, then cut them down, and make machines, until you have captured the city that is contending against you.”
Hagi zafama antagisazana raga'ama one' zafage antagita hagina tro nehutma, hara hutma ana kumara erigahaze.
