'Refuses' in the Bible

However, if it does not make peace with you, but makes war against you, then you shall lay siege to it.

"If a man has a stubborn son who does not obey his parents, and although they try to discipline him, he still refuses to pay attention to them,

But if the man doesn’t want to marry his sister-in-law, she must go to the elders at the city gate and say, ‘My brother-in-law refuses to preserve his brother’s name in Israel. He isn’t willing to perform the duty of a brother-in-law for me.’

Cursed is the one who refuses to keep the words of this law.' Then all the people will say, 'Amen!'
