1He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD.2A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the LORD; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the LORD.3An 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:4Because 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.5Nevertheless 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.6Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.7Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother: thou shalt not abhor an Egyptian; because thou wast a stranger in his land.8The children that are begotten of them shall enter into the congregation of the LORD in their third generation.9When the host goeth forth against thine enemies, then keep thee from every wicked thing.10If there be among you any man, that is not clean by reason of uncleanness that chanceth him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp:11But 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 .12Thou shalt have a place also without the camp, whither thou shalt go forth abroad:13And 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:14For 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.15Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which is escaped from his master unto thee:16He shall dwell with thee, even among you, in that place which he shall choose in one of thy gates, where it liketh him best: thou shalt not oppress him.17There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.18Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of the LORD thy God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto the LORD thy God.19Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury:20Unto 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.21When 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.22But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.23That which is gone out of thy lips thou shalt keep and perform; even a freewill offering, according as thou hast vowed unto the LORD thy God, which thou hast promised with thy mouth.24When thou comest into thy neighbour's vineyard, then thou mayest eat grapes thy fill at thine own pleasure; but thou shalt not put any in thy vessel.25When thou comest into the standing corn of thy neighbour, then thou mayest pluck the ears with thine hand; but thou shalt not move a sickle unto thy neighbour's standing corn.
Deuteronomy 23
English Standard Version
Those Excluded from the Assembly
1“No one whose testicles are crushed or whose male organ is cut off shall enter the assembly of the Lord.2“No one born of a forbidden union may enter the assembly of the Lord. Even to the tenth generation, none of his descendants may enter the assembly of the Lord. (Zec 9:6)3“No Ammonite or Moabite may enter the assembly of the Lord. Even to the tenth generation, none of them may enter the assembly of the Lord forever, (Ne 13:1)4because they did not 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. (Nu 22:5; De 2:29; Ac 7:2; 2Pe 2:15)5But the Lord your God would not listen to Balaam; instead the Lord your God turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the Lord your God loved you. (Nu 23:11; Nu 24:10)6You shall not seek their peace or their prosperity all your days forever. (Ezr 9:12)7“You shall not abhor an Edomite, for he is your brother. You shall not abhor an Egyptian, because you were a sojourner in his land. (Ge 25:24; Ex 22:21; Ex 23:9; Le 19:34; Nu 20:14; De 10:19; Ob 1:10; Ob 1:12)8Children born to them in the third generation may enter the assembly of the Lord.
Uncleanness in the Camp
9“When you are encamped against your enemies, then you shall keep yourself from every evil thing.10“If any man among you becomes unclean because of a nocturnal emission, then he shall go outside the camp. He shall not come inside the camp, (Le 15:16)11but when evening comes, he shall bathe himself in water, and as the sun sets, he may come inside the camp. (Le 15:5)12“You shall have a place outside the camp, and you shall go out to it.13And you shall have a trowel with your tools, and when you sit down outside, you shall dig a hole with it and turn back and cover up your excrement.14Because the Lord your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you and to give up your enemies before you, therefore your camp must be holy, so that he may not see anything indecent among you and turn away from you. (Le 26:12)
Miscellaneous Laws
15“You shall not give up to his master a slave[1] who has escaped from his master to you. (1Sa 30:15)16He shall dwell with you, in your midst, in the place that he shall choose within one of your towns, wherever it suits him. You shall not wrong him.17“None of the daughters of Israel shall be a cult prostitute, and none of the sons of Israel shall be a cult prostitute. (Le 19:29; 1Ki 14:24; 1Ki 15:12; 1Ki 22:46; 2Ki 23:7)18You shall not bring the fee of a prostitute or the wages of a dog[2] into the house of the Lord your God in payment for any vow, for both of these are an abomination to the Lord your God.19“You shall not charge interest on loans to your brother, interest on money, interest on food, interest on anything that is lent for interest. (Ex 22:25; Ne 5:10)20You may charge a foreigner interest, but you may not charge your brother interest, that the Lord your God may bless you in all that you undertake in the land that you are entering to take possession of it. (De 15:3; De 15:10)21“If you make a vow to the Lord your God, you shall not delay fulfilling it, for the Lord your God will surely require it of you, and you will be guilty of sin. (Nu 30:2; Ps 66:13; Ps 76:11)22But if you refrain from vowing, you will not be guilty of sin.23You shall be careful to do what has passed your lips, for you have voluntarily vowed to the Lord your God what you have promised with your mouth.24“If you go into your neighbor’s vineyard, you may eat your fill of grapes, as many as you wish, but you shall not put any in your bag.25If you go into your neighbor’s standing grain, you may pluck the ears with your hand, but you shall not put a sickle to your neighbor’s standing grain. (Mt 12:1; Mr 2:23; Lu 6:1)
