Nehemiah 13:1-3

1On that dayH3117 they readH7121 in the bookH5612 of MosesH4872 in the hearingH241 of the peopleH5971; and in it was foundH4672 writtenH3789, that the AmmoniteH5984 and the MoabiteH4125 should not comeH935 into the congregationH6951 of GodH430 forH5704 everH5769;12

2Because they metH6923 not the childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478 with breadH3899 and with waterH4325, but hiredH7936 BalaamH1109 against them, that he should curseH7043 them: but our GodH430 turnedH2015 the curseH7045 into a blessingH1293.

3Now it came to pass, when they had heardH8085 the lawH8451, that they separatedH914 from IsraelH3478 all the mixed multitudeH6154.
