Hanya perempuan, anak-anak, hewan dan segala yang ada di kota itu, yakni seluruh jarahan itu, boleh kaurampas bagimu sendiri, dan jarahan yang dari musuhmu ini, yang diberikan kepadamu oleh TUHAN, Allahmu, boleh kaupergunakan.
Tetapi segala orang perempuan dan segala anak-anak dan binatang dan segala harta yang di dalam negeri itu, segala jarahannya hendaklah kamu rampas akan dirimu dan kamu akan makan barang jarahan dari pada musuhmu, yang telah dikaruniakan Tuhan, Allahmu, kepadamu.

Gill's Notes on the Bible
But the women, the little ones, and the cattle,.... These were to be spared; women, because of the weakness of their sex, and subjection to their husbands; and little ones, which take in males as well as females, as Jarchi observes, because of their tender age; and cattle because of their insensibility; all these having had no concern in holding out the siege:
and all that is in the city, even all the spoil thereof, shall thou take unto thyself; gold, silver, merchandise, household goods, utensils in trade, and whatever was of any worth and value to be found in their houses:
and thou shall eat the spoil of thine enemies, which the Lord thy God hath given thee; that is, enjoy all their wealth and riches, estates and possessions; for this is not to be restrained to things eatable only.
Barnes' Notes on the Bible
Directions intended to prevent wanton destruction of life and property in sieges.
Deuteronomy 20:16
Forbearance, however, was not to be shown toward the Canaanite nations, which were to be utterly exterminated (compare Deuteronomy 7:1-4). The command did not apply to beasts as well as men (compare Joshua 11:11, Joshua 11:14).
Deuteronomy 20:19
The parenthesis may he more literally rendered “for man is a tree of the field,” i. e., has his life from the tree of the field, is supported in life by it (compare Deuteronomy 24:6). The Egyptians seem invariably to have cut down the fruit-trees in war.
