You must destroy it completely,[a](H) both its people and its livestock.(I) 16 You are to gather all the plunder of the town into the middle of the public square and completely burn the town(J) and all its plunder as a whole burnt offering to the Lord your God.(K) That town is to remain a ruin(L) forever, never to be rebuilt,
