Deuteronomy 20:11-15

¹¹If they accept your offer of peace and open their gates, all the people there will become forced laborers to serve you.

¹²But if they refuse to make peace with you and wage war against you, lay siege to that city.

¹³When the LORD your God has delivered it into your hand, you must put every male to the sword.

¹⁴But the women, children, livestock, and whatever else is in the city — all its spoil — you may take as plunder, and you shall use the spoil of your enemies that the LORD your God gives you.

¹⁵This is how you are to treat all the cities that are far away from you and do not belong to the nations nearby.
