10. If thou go out to fight against thy enemies, and the Lord thy God deliver them into thy hand, and thou lead them away captives,
11. And seest in the number of the captives a beautiful woman, and lovest her, and wilt have her to wife,
12. Thou shalt bring her into thy house: and she shall shave her hair, and pare her nails,
