What the officers are to say to the people

유사들이 백성에게 고할 말

Deuteronomy 20:5–9: he says, “The officers shall speak to the people, saying, ‘What man is there who has built a new house, and has not dedicated it? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man dedicate it. What man is there who has planted a vineyard, and has not used its fruit? Let him go and return to his house, lest he die in the battle, and another man use its fruit. What man is there who has pledged to be married to 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.’ The officers shall speak further to the people, and they shall say, ‘What man is there who is fearful and faint-hearted? Let him go and return to his house, lest his brother’s heart melt as his heart.’ It shall be, when the officers have finished speaking to the people, that they shall appoint captains of armies at the head of the people.”
