At that time we seized all his cities and put every one of them under divine judgment, including even the women and children; we left no survivors.

We put all of these under divine judgment just as we had done to King Sihon of Heshbon -- every occupied city, including women and children.

You must by all means destroy all the places where the nations you are about to dispossess worship their gods -- on the high mountains and hills and under every leafy tree.

You must not take for yourself anything that has been placed under judgment. Then the Lord will relent from his intense anger, show you compassion, have mercy on you, and multiply you as he promised your ancestors.

So when the Lord your God gives you relief from all the enemies who surround you in the land he is giving you as an inheritance, you must wipe out the memory of the Amalekites from under heaven -- do not forget!
