Deuteronomy 23:4-7
4BecauseH1697 they metH6923 you not with breadH3899 and with waterH4325 in the wayH1870, when ye came forthH3318 from EgyptH4714; and because they hiredH7936 against thee BalaamH1109 the sonH1121 of BeorH1160 of PethorH6604 of MesopotamiaH763, to curseH7043 thee.
5Nevertheless the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 wouldH14 not hearkenH8085 to BalaamH1109; but the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 turnedH2015 the curseH7045 into a blessingH1293 to thee, because the LORDH3068 thy GodH430 lovedH157 thee.
6Thou shalt not seekH1875 their peaceH7965 nor their prosperityH2896 all thy daysH3117 for everH5769.1
7Thou shalt not abhorH8581 an EdomiteH130; for he is thy brotherH251: thou shalt not abhorH8581 an EgyptianH4713; because thou wast a strangerH1616 in his landH776.
