20 To the contrary, ^o“if your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink; for by so doing you will heap burning coals on his head.”

22 He answered, “You shall not strike them down. Would you strike down those whom you have taken captive ^vwith your sword and with your bow? ^wSet bread and water before them, that they may eat and drink and go to their master.”

15 And ^rthe men who have been mentioned by name rose and took the captives, and with the spoil they clothed all who were naked among them. They clothed them, gave them sandals, ^sprovided them with food and drink, and anointed them, and carrying all the feeble among them on donkeys, they brought them to their kinsfolk at Jericho, ^tthe city of palm trees. Then they returned to Samaria.
