A priest calms Israel’s army before combat, officers send home three categories of men, and the law names six nations for conquest.
Full sung version coming soon.
Lyrics
When you go out to battle against your enemies And see horses and chariots and a people more than you
Be not afraid of them for the LORD your God is with you Which brought you up out of the land of Egypt
It shall be when you are come to the battle That the priest shall approach and speak to the people
And shall say to them hear O Israel You approach this day to battle against your enemies
Let not your hearts faint fear not nor be afraid For the LORD your God goes with you To fight for you against your enemies to save you
The officers shall speak to the people saying What man is there that has built a new house And has not dedicated it let him go
What man is there that is fearful and fainthearted Let him go and return to his house
That his brethren’s heart faint not as well as his heart When you come near to a city to fight Then proclaim peace to it
That all the people that is found shall be tributaries to you
