Deuteronomy 20
1 “When you go out to battle against your enemy, and have seen horse and chariot—a people more numerous than you—you are not afraid of them, for your God YHWH [is] with you, who is bringing you up out of the land of Egypt;
Inton mapankayo makigubat kadagiti kabusoryo, ket makitayo dagiti kabalio, lugan a panggubat, ken ad-adu a tattao ngem kadakayo, masapul a saankayo nga agbuteng kadakuada; ta adda ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo, a nangiruar kadakayo manipud iti daga ti Egipto.
2 and it has been, in your drawing near to the battle, that the priest has come near, and spoken to the people,
Inton asidegkayon a makigubat, masapul nga umasideg ti padi ken agsao kadagiti tattao,
3 and said to them, Hear, O Israel: You are drawing near today to battle against your enemies, do not let your hearts be tender, do not fear, nor make haste, nor be terrified at their presence,
ket ibagana kadakuada, 'Dumngegkayo, Israel, ita nga aldaw, asidegkayon a makigubat kadagiti kabusoryo; saan koma a maupay dagiti pusoyo; saankayo nga agbuteng, wenno agpigerger, wenno agbuteng kadakuada;
4 for your God YHWH [is] He who is going with you, to fight for you with your enemies—to save you.
ta kumuyog ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo a makiranget kadagiti kabusoryo ken mangisalakan kadakayo.'
5 And the authorities have spoken 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, lest he die in battle and another man dedicate it.
Masapul nga agsao dagiti opisial kadagiti tattao ket ibagada, “Siasino a lalaki ti adda ditoy a nangipatakder iti baro a balay ket saanna pay a naidaton daytoy? Palubosanyo isuna nga agsubli iti balayna, tapno saan isuna a matay iti paggugubatan ket sabali a lalaki ti mangidaton iti daytoy.
6 And who [is] the man that has planted a vineyard and has not made it common? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in battle, and another man make it common.
Siasino a lalaki ti nagmula iti kaubasan ken saanna pay a napagnumaran ti bunga dagitoy? Palubosanyo isuna nga agsubli iti balayna, tapno saan isuna a matay iti paggugubatan ket sabali a lalaki ti agnumar iti bunga dagitoy.
7 And who [is] the man that has betrothed a woman and has not taken her? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in battle, and another man take her.
Siasino a lalaki ti adda ditoy a naitulag a makiasawa iti maysa a babai ngem saanna pay a naasawa isuna? Palubosanyo isuna nga agsubli iti balayna tapno saan isuna a matay iti paggugubatan ket sabali a lalaki ti mangasawa kenkuana.'
8 And the authorities have added to speak to the people and said, Who [is] the man that is afraid and tender of heart? Let him go and return to his house, and the heart of his brothers does not melt like his heart.
Masapul nga agsao pay dagiti opisial kadagiti tattao ket kunada, 'Siasino a lalaki ti adda ditoy a managbuteng wenno maup-upay ti pusona? Palubosanyo isuna nga agsubli iti balayna, tapno saan a marunaw ti puso ti kabsatna a kasla iti pusona.'
9 And it has come to pass, as the authorities finish to speak to the people, that they have appointed princes of the hosts at the head of the people.
Inton nalpasen ti panagsao dagiti opisial kadagiti tattao, masapul a mangdutokda kadagiti mangidaulo kadakuada.
10 When you draw near to a city to fight against it, then you have called to it for peace,
Inton mapanyo rauten ti maysa a siudad, idiayayo ti pannakikapia kadagitoy a tattao.
11 and it has been, if it answers you [with] peace, and has opened to you, then it has come to pass, all the people who are found in it are for tributaries to you, and have served you.
No awatenda ti idiayayo ket ilukatandakayo iti ruangan, masapul nga inkapilitan nga agtrabaho para kadakayo dagiti amin tattao a masarakan iti daytoy ken masapul nga agserbida kadakayo.
12 And if it does not make peace with you, and has made war with you, then you have laid siege against it,
Ngem no saan daytoy a makikapia kadakayo, ngem makigubatda ketdi kadakayo, masapul ngarud a lakubenyo daytoy,
13 and your God YHWH has given it into your hand, and you have struck every male of it by the mouth of the sword.
ket inton pagballigiennakayo ni Yahweh a Diosyo ken ipaiturayanna ida kadakayo, masapul a papatayenyo ti tunggal lalaki iti ili.
14 Only, the women, and the infants, and the livestock, and all that is in the city, all its spoil, you seize for yourself, and you have eaten the spoil of your enemies which your God YHWH has given to you.
Ngem dagiti babbai, dagiti ubbing, dagiti ayup, ken amin nga adda iti siudad, ken amin a masamsam ditoy, alaenyonto a kas sinamsamyo. Usarenyonto dagiti sinamsam dagiti kabusoryo, nga inted ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo.
15 So you do to all the cities which are very far off from you, which are not of the cities of these nations.
Masapul nga agtignaykayo iti kastoy a wagas kadagiti amin a siudad nga adayo unay kadakayo, dagiti siudad a saan a dagiti siudad kadagitoy sumaganad a nasion.
16 Only, of the cities of these peoples which your God YHWH is giving to you [for] an inheritance, you do not keep alive any [that are] breathing;
Kadagiti siudad dagitoy a tattao nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo a kas tawidyo, masapul nga awan ibatiyo nga agang-anges.
17 for you certainly devote the Hittite, and the Amorite, the Canaanite, and the Perizzite, the Hivite, and the Jebusite, as your God YHWH has commanded you,
Ngem ketdi, masapul a dadaelenyo ida a naan-anay: dagiti Heteo, ken dagiti Amorreo, dagiti Cananeo, dagiti Perezeo, dagiti Heveo ken dagiti Jebuseo a kas imbilin ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo.
18 so that they do not teach you to do according to all their abominations which they have done for their gods, and you have sinned against your God YHWH.
Aramidenyo daytoy tapno saandakayo a suroan nga agaramid iti aniaman kadagiti makarimon a wagasda, a kas inaramidda kadagiti didiosenda. No aramidenyo, agbasolkayonto kenni Yahweh a Diosyo.
19 When you lay siege to a city [for] many days to fight against it, to capture it, you do not destroy its trees to force an axe against them, for you eat of them, and you do not cut them down—for the tree of the field [is] man’s—to go in at your presence in the siege.
Inton lakubenyo ti maysa a siudad iti nabayag a panawen, a kas iti pannakigubatyo iti daytoy tapno masakupyo, masapul a saanyo a dadaelen dagiti kaykayo daytoy babaen iti panangwasayyo kadagitoy. Ta mabalinyo ti mangan manipud kadagitoy, isu a masapul a saanyo a pukanen dagitoy. Ta tao kadi ti kayo iti taltalon a nasken a lakubenyo?
20 Only, the tree of which you know that it [is] not a fruit-tree, you destroy it, and have cut [it] down, and have built a bulwark against the city which is making war with you until you have subdued it.”
Dagiti laeng kaykayo nga ammoyo a saan a mabalin a kanen, mabalinyo a dadaelen ken pukanen dagitoy; mangbangonkayonto iti sarikedked a maibusor iti siudad a makigubat kadakayo, agingga a marba daytoy.
