Verse 19
When thou shalt besiege{H6696} a city{H5892} a long{H7227} time,{H3117} in making war{H3898} against it to take{H8610} it, thou shalt not destroy{H7843} the trees{H6086} thereof by wielding{H5080} an axe{H1631} against them; for thou mayest eat{H398} of them, and thou shalt not cut them down;{H3772} for is the tree{H6086} of the field{H7704} man,{H120} that it should{H935} be besieged{H6440} of thee?
