Devarim 20:3-5

Orthodox Jewish Bible

³ And shall say unto them, Shema, Yisroel, ye approach today unto milchamah against your enemies; let not your hearts faint; fear not, and do not tremble, neither be ye terrified because of them;

⁴ For Hashem Eloheicha is He that goeth with you, to fight for you against your enemies, to save you.

⁵ And the shoterim shall speak unto the people, saying, What ish is there that hath built a bais chadash, and hath not dedicated it? Let him go and return to his bais, lest he die in the milchamah, and another ish dedicate it.
