Deuteronomy 23:1-4
WEB · Bible Passage
Bible Text
[1] He who is wounded in the stones, or has his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the assembly of Yahweh. [2] A bastard shall not enter into the assembly of Yahweh; even to the tenth generation shall none of his enter into the assembly of Yahweh. [3] An Ammonite or a Moabite shall not enter into the assembly of Yahweh; even to the tenth generation shall none belonging to them enter into the assembly of Yahweh forever: [4] because they didn't meet you with bread and with water in the way, when you came forth out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you.
