17 Now therefore kill every male among the little ones, and kill every woman that hath known man by lying with him.
Now therefore, slay all the males among the children, and kill all the women that haue knowen man by carnall copulation.
18 But all the female children, that have not known a man by lying with him, keep alive for yourselves.
But all the women children that haue not knowen carnall copulation, keepe aliue for your selues.
