You don't need to know another language, just be honest with the one you've got.
BTW "Keeping children for themselves" is not a green light for abuse, not in the English language, and not by society, and not in that historical record.
If you want to deal out scripture, at least have the courtesy to use English by it's grammatical norms.
No; it is when the context is about taking "wives".

Yes, it explicitly says keep. The problem is that your mind reads "keep" as enslave and immediately fuck .
The context speak about "sex wives" or "female war booty".

It links to all the other verses that use the same word. One, for example, is that the midwives in Egypt refused the order to kill the male babies, but rather kept them alive.

If keep was "implied"; the first thing I would think about is Necrophilia. There is no way that this verse mean anything, but what ancient armies did to cities after taking them: killing the men, and rape the women and their kids.
