Deuteronomy 23:3-5

3An Ammonite or Moabite may not enter the assembly of the Lord; to the tenth generation none of their descendants shall ever do so,

4for they did not meet you with food and water on the way as you came from Egypt, and furthermore, they hired Balaam son of Beor of Pethor in Aram Naharaim to curse you.

5But the Lord your God refused to listen to Balaam and changed the curse to a blessing, for the Lord your God loves you.
