Chapter 23
1
A man shall not take his father's wife, nor uncover his father's wing.
2
A crushed-and-bruised one or one with severed genitals shall not enter the assembly of the LORD.
3
A bastard shall not enter the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation they shall not enter the assembly of the LORD.
4
An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation shall they not enter the assembly of the LORD forever.
5
because of the word that they did not meet you with bread and water on the way when you went out from Egypt, and because he hired against you Balaam son of Beor from Pethor of Aram of the Rivers to curse you.
6
And the LORD your God was not willing to listen to Balaam, and the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the LORD your God loves you.
7
Do not seek their shalom or their tobah all your days forever.
8
Do not abhor an Edomite because he is your brother. Do not abhor an Egyptian because you were a sojourner in his land.
