Previous Chapter Previous Verse Full Chapter Next Verse Next Chapter
3 No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their people to the tenth generation may come into the meeting of the Lord's people:
4 Because they gave you no bread or water on your way, when you came out of Egypt: and they got Balaam, the son of Peor, from Pethor in Aram-naharaim to put curses on you.
5 But the Lord your God would not give ear to Balaam, but let the curse be changed into a blessing to you, because of his love for you.
6 Do nothing for their peace or well-being for ever.
7 But have no hate for an Edomite, because he is your brother, or for an Egyptian, for you were living in his land.
8 Their children in the third generation may come into the meeting of the Lord's people.
9 When you go out to war and put your tents in position, keep from every evil thing.
