ASV_Strong : Deuteronomy 23
1. He that is wounded in the stones[H6481], or hath his privy member[H8212] cut off[H3772], shall not enter[H935] into the assembly[H6951] of Jehovah[H3068].
2. A bastard[H4464] shall not enter[H935] into the assembly[H6951] of Jehovah[H3068]; even to the tenth[H6224] generation[H1755] shall none of his enter[H935] into the assembly[H6951] of Jehovah[H3068].
3. An Ammonite[H5984] or a Moabite[H4125] shall not enter[H935] into the assembly[H6951] of Jehovah[H3068]; even to the tenth[H6224] generation[H1755] shall none belonging to them enter[H935] into the assembly[H6951] of Jehovah[H3068] for[H5704] ever[H5769]:
4. because[H1697] they met[H6923] you not with bread[H3899] and with water[H4325] in the way[H1870], when ye came forth[H3318] out of Egypt[H4714], and because they hired[H7936] against thee Balaam[H1109] the son[H1121] of Beor[H1160] from Pethor[H6604] of Mesopotamia[H763], to curse thee[H7043].
5. Nevertheless Jehovah[H3068] thy God[H430] would[H14] not hearken[H8085] unto Balaam[H1109]; but Jehovah[H3068] thy God[H430] turned[H2015] the curse[H7045] into a blessing[H1293] unto thee[H3068], because Jehovah thy God[H430] loved thee[H157].
6. Thou shalt not seek[H1875] their peace[H7965] nor their prosperity[H2896] all thy days[H3117] for ever[H5769].
7. Thou shalt not abhor[H8581] an Edomite[H130]; for he is thy brother[H251]: thou shalt not abhor[H8581] an Egyptian[H4713], because thou wast a sojourner[H1616] in his land[H776].
8. The children[H1121] of the third[H7992] generation[H1755] that are born[H3205] unto them shall enter[H935] into the assembly[H6951] of Jehovah[H3068].
9. When thou goest forth[H3318] in camp[H4264] against thine enemies[H341], then thou shalt keep[H8104] thee from every evil[H7451] thing[H1697].
10. If there be among you any man[H376], that is not clean[H2889] by reason of that which chanceth[H7137] him by night[H3915], then shall he go[H3318] abroad[H2351] out of the camp[H4264], he shall not come[H935] within[H8432] the camp[H4264]:
11. but it shall be[H6153], when evening cometh on[H6437], he shall bathe[H7364] himself in water[H4325]; and when the sun[H8121] is down[H935], he shall come[H935] within[H8432] the camp[H4264].
12. Thou shalt have a place also[H3027] without[H2351] the camp[H4264], whither thou shalt go forth[H3318] abroad[H2351]:
13. and thou shalt have a paddle[H3489] among thy weapons[H240]; and it shall be[H3427], when thou sittest down abroad[H2351], thou shalt dig[H2658] therewith[H7725], and shalt turn back and cover[H3680] that which cometh from thee[H6627]:
14. for Jehovah[H3068] thy God[H430] walketh[H1980] in the midst[H7130] of thy camp[H4264], to deliver[H5337] thee[H5414], and to give up thine enemies[H341] before[H6440] thee[H4264]; therefore shall thy camp be holy[H6918], that he may not see[H7200] an unclean[H6172] thing[H1697] in thee[H7725], and turn away from thee[H310].
15. Thou shalt not deliver[H5462] unto his master[H113] a servant[H5650] that is escaped[H5337] from his master unto thee[H113]:
16. he shall dwell[H3427] with thee[H7130], in the midst of thee[H4725], in the place which he shall choose[H977] within one[H259] of thy gates[H8179], where it pleaseth him best[H2896]: thou shalt not oppress him[H3238].
17. There shall be no prostitute[H6948] of the daughters[H1323] of Israel[H3478], neither shall there be a sodomite[H6945] of the sons[H1121] of Israel[H3478].
18. Thou shalt not bring[H935] the hire[H868] of a harlot[H2181], or the wages[H4242] of a dog[H3611], into the house[H1004] of Jehovah[H3068] thy God[H430] for any vow[H5088]: for even both[H8147] these are an abomination[H8441] unto Jehovah[H3068] thy God[H430].
19. Thou shalt not lend upon interest[H5391] to thy brother[H251]; interest[H5391] of money[H3701], interest[H5392] of victuals[H400], interest[H5392] of anything[H1697] that is lent upon interest[H5391]:
20. unto a foreigner[H5237] thou mayest lend upon interest[H5391]; but unto thy brother[H251] thou shalt not lend upon interest[H5391], that Jehovah[H3068] thy God[H430] may bless[H1288] thee in all that thou puttest[H4916] thy hand[H3027] unto[H776], in the land whither thou goest[H935] in to possess it[H3423].
21. When thou shalt vow[H5087] a vow[H5088] unto Jehovah[H3068] thy God[H430], thou shalt not be slack[H309] to pay[H7999] it[H3068]: for Jehovah thy God[H430] will surely[H1875] require[H1875] it of thee[H2399]; and it would be sin in thee.
22. But if thou shalt forbear[H2308] to vow[H5087], it shall be no sin in thee[H2399].
23. That which is gone out[H4161] of thy lips[H8193] thou shalt observe[H8104] and do[H6213]; according as thou hast vowed[H5087] unto Jehovah[H3068] thy God[H430], a freewill-offering[H5071], which thou hast promised[H1696] with thy mouth[H6310].
24. When thou comest[H935] into thy neighbor[H7453]'s vineyard[H3754], then thou mayest eat[H398] of grapes[H6025] thy fill[H7648] at thine own pleasure[H5315]; but thou shalt not put[H5414] any in thy vessel[H3627].
25. When thou comest[H935] into thy neighbor[H7453]'s standing grain[H7054], then thou mayest pluck[H6998] the ears[H4425] with thy hand[H3027]; but thou shalt not move[H5130] a sickle[H2770] unto thy neighbor[H7453]'s standing grain[H7054].
