Deuteronomy 23:2-9

2A bastard shall notH3808 enterH935 intoH935 the assemblyH6951 of the LORDH3068; evenH3808 to the tenth generation shall noneH3808 of his enterH935 intoH935 the assemblyH6951 of the LORDH3068.

3An Ammonite or a Moabite shall notH3808 enterH935 intoH935 the assemblyH6951 of the LORDH3068; evenH1571 to the tenthH6224 generationH1755 shall noneH3808 belonging to them enterH935 intoH935 the assemblyH6951 of the LORDH3068 for ever:

4because they met youH5704 notH3808 with bread and with water in the wayH5704, when ye cameH935 forth outH935 of Egypt; and because they hired againstH935 thee Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse thee.

5Nevertheless the LORD thy GodH3808 would notH3808 hearken unto BalaamH1109; but the LORD thy GodH3808 turned the curseH7043 intoH5921 a blessing unto thee, becauseH5921 the LORD thy GodH3808 loved thee.

6Thou shalt notH3808 seekH3808 their peaceH1293 norH3808 their prosperity all thy days for ever.

7Thou shalt notH3808 abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother: thou shalt notH3808 abhor an Egyptian; becauseH3117 thou wast a stranger in his land.

8The children of the third generation that are bornH3808 unto them shall enter intoH776 the assembly of the LORD.

9When thou goest forthH3205 in camp againstH935 thine enemies, then thou shalt keepH935 thee from everyH1755 evil thing.
