Deuteronomy 21:7-13 Webster Bible Translation (WBT)

7. And they shall answer and say, Our hands have not shed this blood, neither have our eyes seen it.

8. Be merciful, O LORD, to thy people Israel, whom thou hast redeemed, and lay not innocent blood to the charge of thy people Israel. And the blood shall be forgiven them.

9. So shalt thou remove the guilt of innocent blood from among you, when thou shalt do that which is right in the sight of the LORD.

10. When thou goest forth to war against thy enemies, and the LORD thy God hath delivered them into thy hands, and thou hast taken them captive,

11. And thou seest among the captives a beautiful woman, and hast a desire to her, that thou wouldest have her for thy wife:

12. Then thou shalt bring her home to thy house, and she shall shave her head, and pare her nails:

13. And she shall put off from her the raiment of her captivity, and shall remain in thy house, and bewail her father and her mother a full month: and after that, thou shalt go in to her, and be her husband, and she shall be thy wife.
