And all the men of his household ​— ​whether born in his household or purchased from a foreigner ​— ​were circumcised with him.

The LORD said to Moses and Aaron, “This is the statute of the Passover: no foreigner may eat it.

“They must eat those things by which atonement was made at the time of their ordination[fn] and consecration. An unauthorized person must not eat them, for these things are holy.

“Anyone who blends something like it or puts some of it on an unauthorized person must be cut off from his people.”

“No one outside a priest’s family[fn] is to eat the holy offering. A foreigner staying with a priest or a hired worker is not to eat the holy offering.

“If the priest’s daughter is married to a man outside a priest’s family,[fn] she is not to eat from the holy contributions.[fn]

“Neither you nor[fn] a foreigner are to present food to your God from any of these animals. They will not be accepted for you because they are deformed and have a defect.”

“Whenever the tabernacle is to move, the Levites are to take it down, and whenever it is to stop at a campsite, the Levites are to set it up. Any unauthorized person who comes near it is to be put to death.

“You are to appoint Aaron and his sons to carry out their priestly responsibilities, but any unauthorized person who comes near the sanctuary is to be put to death.”

Moses, Aaron, and his sons, who performed the duties of[fn] the sanctuary as a service on behalf of the Israelites, camped in front of the tabernacle on the east, in front of the tent of meeting toward the sunrise. Any unauthorized person who came near it was to be put to death.

just as the LORD commanded him through Moses. It was to be a reminder for the Israelites that no unauthorized person outside the lineage of Aaron should approach to offer incense before the LORD and become like Korah and his followers.

“They are to join you and guard the tent of meeting, doing all the work at the tent, but no unauthorized person may come near you.

“But you and your sons will carry out your priestly responsibilities for everything concerning the altar and for what is inside the curtain, and you will do that work. I am giving you the work of the priesthood as a gift,[fn] but an unauthorized person who comes near the sanctuary will be put to death.”

to whom alone the land was given

when no foreigner passed among them.

My house guests[fn] and female servants regard me as a stranger;

I am a foreigner in their sight.

No foreigner who has joined himself to the LORD

should say,

“The LORD will exclude me from his people,”

and the eunuch should not say,

“Look, I am a dried-up tree.”

“As for the foreigners who join themselves to the LORD

to minister to him, to love the name of the LORD,

and to become his servants —

all who keep the Sabbath without desecrating it

and who hold firmly to my covenant —

Foreigners will rebuild your walls,

and their kings will serve you.

Although I struck you in my wrath,

yet I will show mercy to you with my favor.

Strangers will stand and feed your flocks,

and foreigners will be your plowmen and vinedressers.

“All who resolve to go to Egypt to stay there for a while will die by the sword, famine, and plague. They will have no survivor or fugitive from the disaster I will bring on them.’

We are ashamed

because we have heard insults.

Humiliation covers our faces

because foreigners have entered

the holy places of the LORD’s temple.

“When you brought in foreigners, uncircumcised in both heart and flesh, to occupy my sanctuary, you defiled my temple while you offered my food ​— ​the fat and the blood. You[fn] broke my covenant by all your detestable practices.

“This is what the Lord GOD says: No foreigner, uncircumcised in heart and flesh, may enter my sanctuary, not even a foreigner who is among the Israelites.

Then you will know

that I am the LORD your God,

who dwells in Zion, my holy mountain.

Jerusalem will be holy,

and foreigners will never overrun it again.

On the day you stood aloof,

on the day strangers captured his wealth,[fn]

while foreigners entered his city gate

and cast lots for Jerusalem,

you were just like one of them.

A mongrel people will live in Ashdod,

and I will destroy the pride of the Philistines.

“For look, the day is coming, burning like a furnace, when all the arrogant and everyone who commits wickedness will become stubble. The coming day will consume them,” says the LORD of Armies, “not leaving them root or branches.
