Are there any passages from the bible that excuse murder in the name of war?

Christianity clearly defines murder as a sin, but does it say anywhere in the bible that murder is acceptable in cases like war, self-defense, vengeance (death penalty), etc? Or is it always a sin no matter what? Just curious. Preferred answers from people who consider themselves experts on religion and christianity.
