Deuteronomy 20:20

WYC

NIV

20 And if any of them be not apple trees, but be wild, and able into other uses, cut them down, and make of them engines, till thou take the city that fighteth against thee. (But if any of them be not apple trees, or other kinds of fruit trees, but be wild, and good for other uses, then cut them down, and make engines, or bulwarks, out of them, until thou take the city that fighteth against thee.)
20 However, you may cut down trees that you know are not fruit trees and use them to build siege works until the city at war with you falls.
