1. He who is emasculated by crushing or cutting shall not enter into the Lord’s assembly.
2. A person born of a forbidden union shall not enter into the Lord’s assembly; even to the tenth generation shall no one of his enter into the Lord’s assembly.
3. An Ammonite or a Moabite shall not enter into the Lord’s assembly; even to the tenth generation shall no one belonging to them enter into the Lord’s assembly forever;
4. because they didn’t meet you with bread and with water on the way, when you came out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you.
5. Nevertheless the Lord your God wouldn’t listen to Balaam; but the Lord your God turned the curse into a blessing to you, because the Lord your God loved you.
6. You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days forever.
7. You shall not abhor an Edomite; for he is your brother. You shall not abhor an Egyptian, because you lived as a foreigner in his land.
8. The children of the third generation who are born to them may enter into the Lord’s assembly.
