Deuteronomy 20

1 And if you should go forth to war against your enemies, and should see horse, and rider, and a people more numerous than yourself; you shall not be afraid of them, for the Lord your God [is] with you, who brought 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 shall come to pass whenever you shall draw near to battle, that the priest shall draw near and speak to the people, and shall say to them,

Inton asidegkayon a makigubat, masapul nga umasideg ti padi ken agsao kadagiti tattao,

3 Hear, O Israel; you are going this day to battle against your enemies: let not your heart faint, fear not, neither be confounded, neither turn aside from their face.

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 [it is] the Lord your God who advances with you, to fight with you against your enemies, [and] to save you.

ta kumuyog ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo a makiranget kadagiti kabusoryo ken mangisalakan kadakayo.'

5 And the scribes shall speak to the people, saying, What man [is] he that has built a new house, and has not dedicated it? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the war, 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 what man [is] he that has planted a vineyard, and not been made merry with it? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man be made merry with it.

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 what man [is] he that has betrothed a wife, and has not taken her? let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the 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 scribes shall speak further to the people, and say, What man [is] he that fears and is cowardly in his heart? Let him go and return to his house, lest he make the heart of his brother fail, as his own.

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 shall come to pass when the scribes shall have ceased speaking to the people, that they shall appoint generals of the army to be leaders of the people.

Inton nalpasen ti panagsao dagiti opisial kadagiti tattao, masapul a mangdutokda kadagiti mangidaulo kadakuada.

10 And if you shall draw near to a city to overcome them by war, then call them out peaceably.

Inton mapanyo rauten ti maysa a siudad, idiayayo ti pannakikapia kadagitoy a tattao.

11 If then they should answer peaceably to you, and open to you, it shall be that all the people found in it shall be tributary and subject to 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 But if they will not listen to you, but wage war against you, you shall invest it;

Ngem no saan daytoy a makikapia kadakayo, ngem makigubatda ketdi kadakayo, masapul ngarud a lakubenyo daytoy,

13 until the Lord your God shall deliver it into your hands, and you shall strike every male of it with the edge of the sword:

ket inton pagballigiennakayo ni Yahweh a Diosyo ken ipaiturayanna ida kadakayo, masapul a papatayenyo ti tunggal lalaki iti ili.

14 except the women and the stuff: and all the cattle, and whatever shall be in the city, and all the plunder you shall take as spoil for yourself, and shall eat all the plunder of your enemies whom the Lord your God gives 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 Thus shall you do to all the cities that are very far off from you, not [being] of the cities of these nations which the Lord your God gives you to inherit their land.

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 [Of these] you shall not take any thing alive;

Kadagiti siudad dagitoy a tattao nga it-ited ni Yahweh a Diosyo kadakayo a kas tawidyo, masapul nga awan ibatiyo nga agang-anges.

17 but you shall surely curse them, the Chettite, and the Amorite, and the Chananite, and the Pherezite, and the Evite, and the Jebusite, and the Gergesite; as the Lord your God 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 that they may not teach you to do all their abominations, which they did to their gods, and [so] you should sin before the Lord your God.

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 And if you should besiege a city many days to prevail against it by war to take it, you shall not destroy its trees, by applying an iron tool to them, but you shall eat of it, and shall not cut it down: Is the tree that is in the field a man, to enter before you into the work of 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 But the tree which you know to be not fruit-bearing, this you shall destroy and cut down; and you shall construct a mound against the city, which makes war against you, until it be delivered up.

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.
