An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter# into the congregation of the LORD; even to their tenth generation shall they not enter# into the congregation of the LORD for ever:

|
|
|

Because they met# you not with bread and with water in the way, when ye came forth# out of Egypt; and because they hired# against thee Balaam the son of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse# thee.
|
|
|
|
5
|
Nevertheless the LORD thy God would# not hearken# unto Balaam; but the LORD thy God turned# the curse into a blessing unto thee, because the LORD thy God loved# thee.
|

|
|
|
|
11
|
But it shall be, when evening cometh on# , he shall wash#
himself with water: and when the sun is down# , he shall come# into the camp
again .
[cometh...: Heb. turneth toward]
|
|
|
|
12
|
Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou shalt go forth# abroad:
|
|
|
|
13
|
And thou shalt have a paddle upon thy weapon; and it shall be, when thou wilt ease# thyself abroad, thou shalt dig# therewith, and shalt turn back# and cover# that which cometh from thee:
[wilt...: Heb. sittest down]
|
|
|
|

|
For the LORD thy God walketh# in the midst of thy camp, to deliver# thee, and to give up# thine enemies# before thee; therefore shall thy camp be holy: that he see# no unclean thing in thee, and turn away# from thee.
[unclean...: Heb. nakedness of any thing]
|
|

Thou shalt not deliver# unto his master the servant which is escaped# from his master unto thee:
|

|
Thou shalt not lend upon usury# to thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury# :
|
|
|
|
20
|
Unto a stranger thou mayest lend upon usury# ; but unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon usury# : that the LORD thy God may bless# thee in all that thou settest thine hand to in the land whither thou goest# to possess# it.
|
|
|
|
21
|
When thou shalt vow# a vow unto the LORD thy God, thou shalt not slack# to pay# it: for the LORD thy God will surely# require# it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.
|
|
|
|
22
|
But if thou shalt forbear# to vow# , it shall be no sin in thee.
|
|
|
|
23
