'Pity' in the Bible
You shall consume all the peoples whom the Lord your God will deliver to you; your eye shall not pity them, nor shall you serve their gods, for that would be a snare to you.
you shall not yield to him or listen to him; and your eye shall not pity him, nor shall you spare or conceal him.
You shall not pity him, but you shall purge the blood of the innocent from Israel, that it may go well with you.
Thus you shall not show pity: life for life, eye for eye, tooth for tooth, hand for hand, foot for foot.
then you shall cut off her hand; you shall not show pity.
