וְהִכִּיתֶ֞ם כָּל־עִ֤יר מִבְצָר֙ וְכָל־עִ֣יר מִבְח֔וֹר וְכָל־עֵ֥ץ טוֹב֙ תַּפִּ֔ילוּ וְכָל־מַעְיְנֵי־מַ֖יִם תִּסְתֹּ֑מוּ וְכֹל֙ הַחֶלְקָ֣ה הַטּוֹבָ֔ה תַּכְאִ֖בוּ בָּאֲבָנִֽים׃
“At gagapiin ninyo ang bawat lungsod na may kuta at ang bawat piling lungsod; ibubuwal ninyo ang bawat mabuting punongkahoy, tatabunan ninyo ang lahat ng bukal ng tubig, at sisirain ninyo ng mga bato ang bawat mabuting bukirin.”
Rashi
And every valuable tree you will chop down. Even though it is stated, “Do not harm any of its trees,”12Devarim 20:19. here He permitted it for you, for this is a contemptible and insignificant nation before Him. And so Scripture states, “You shall not pursue their peace and their benefit,”13Devarim 23:7. [i.e.,] these are the good trees that are among them.
