Deuteronomy 23:5-10

5Nevertheless, the Lord your God was unwilling to listen to Balaam, but the Lord your God 1turned the curse into a blessing for you because the Lord your God 2loves you. 63You shall never seek their peace or their prosperity all your days.

7“You shall not loathe an 4Edomite, for 5he is your brother; you shall not loathe an Egyptian, 6because you were a stranger in his land. 8The sons of the third generation who are born to them may enter the assembly of the Lord.

9“When you go out as 7an army against your enemies, you shall be on guard against every evil thing.

10“8If there is among you any man who is unclean because of a nocturnal emission, then he must go outside the camp; he may not 9reenter the camp.
