Deuteronomy 23:1-14

1He that is a eunuch, whether he have been crushed or cut, shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah.

2A bastard shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah; even his tenth generation shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah.

3An Ammonite or Moabite shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah; even their tenth generation shall not come into the congregation of Jehovah for ever;

4because they met you not with bread and with water on the way, when ye came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against thee Balaam the son of Beor, of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.

5But Jehovah thy 1God would not listen to Balaam; and Jehovah thy 2God turned the curse into blessing unto thee, because Jehovah thy 3God loved thee.

6Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.

7Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother. Thou shalt not abhor an Egyptian; because thou wast a sojourner in his land.

8Children that are born to them shall come into the congregation of Jehovah in the third generation.

9When thou goest forth into camp against thine enemies, then keep thee from every evil thing.

10If there be with thee a man that is not clean from what hath happened in the night, then shall he go outside the camp; he shall not come inside the camp;

11and it shall be, towards evening, he shall bathe in water: and at the going down of the sun he may come inside the camp.

12Thou shalt have a place also outside the camp, and shalt go forth thither.

13And thou shalt have a shovel amongst thy weapons, and it shall be, when thou sittest down abroad, thou shalt dig therewith, and shalt turn back and cover that which is come from thee.

14For Jehovah thy 4God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thine enemies before thee; and thy camp shall be holy, that he see nothing unseemly with thee, and turn away from thee.
