Deuteronomy 20:16Bible in Basic English 1965But in the towns of these peoples whose land the Lord your God is giving you for your heritage, let no living thing be kept from death: See the chapter |
And, answering Joshua, they said, Because it came to the ears of your servants that the Lord your God had given orders to his servant Moses to give you all this land, and to send destruction on all the people living in it, because of you; so, fearing greatly for our lives because of you, we have done this.
