Deuteronomy 23 :: Hebrew Names Version (HNV)

Deu 23:1He who is wounded in the stones, or has his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the assembly of the LORD.
Deu 23:2A bastard shall not enter into the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation shall none of his enter into the assembly of the LORD.
Deu 23:3An `Ammonite or a Mo'avite shall not enter into the assembly of the LORD; even to the tenth generation shall none belonging to them enter into the assembly of the LORD forever:
Deu 23:4because they didn't meet you with bread and with water in the way, when you came forth out of Mitzrayim, and because they hired against you Bil`am the son of Be'or from Petor of Aram-Naharayim, to curse you.
Deu 23:5Nevertheless the LORD your God wouldn't listen to Bil`am; but the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing to you, because the LORD your God loved you.
Deu 23:6You shall not seek their shalom nor their prosperity all your days forever.
Deu 23:7You shall not abhor an Edomite; for he is your brother: you shall not abhor a Mitzrian, because you lived as a foreigner in his land.
Deu 23:8The children of the third generation who are born to them shall enter into the assembly of the LORD.
Deu 23:9When you go forth in camp against your enemies, then you shall keep you from every evil thing.
Deu 23:10If there be among you any man, who is not clean by reason of that which happens him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp:
Deu 23:11but it shall be, when evening comes on, he shall bathe himself in water; and when the sun is down, he shall come within the camp.
Deu 23:12You shall have a place also outside of the camp, where you shall go forth abroad:
Deu 23:13and you shall have a paddle among your weapons; and it shall be, when you sit down abroad, you shall dig therewith, and shall turn back and cover that which comes from you:
Deu 23:14for the LORD your God walks in the midst of your camp, to deliver you, and to give up your enemies before you; therefore shall your camp be holy, that he may not see an unclean thing in you, and turn away from you.
Deu 23:15You shall not deliver to his master a servant who is escaped from his master to you:
Deu 23:16he shall dwell with you, in the midst of you, in the place which he shall choose within one of your gates, where it pleases him best: you shall not oppress him.
Deu 23:17There shall be no prostitute of the daughters of Yisra'el, neither shall there be a sodomite of the sons of Yisra'el.
Deu 23:18You shall not bring the hire of a prostitute, or the wages of a dog, into the house of the LORD your God for any vow: for even both these are an abomination to the LORD your God.
Deu 23:19You shall not lend on interest to your brother; interest of money, interest of victuals, interest of anything that is lent on interest:
Deu 23:20to a foreigner you may lend on interest; but to your brother you shall not lend on interest, that the LORD your God may bless you in all that you put your hand to, in the land where you go in to possess it.
Deu 23:21When you shall vow a vow to the LORD your God, you shall not be slack to pay it: for the LORD your God will surely require it of you; and it would be sin in you.
Deu 23:22But if you shall forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in you.
Deu 23:23That which is gone out of your lips you shall observe and do; according as you have vowed to the LORD your God, a freewill-offering, which you have promised with your mouth.
Deu 23:24When you come into your neighbor's vineyard, then you may eat of grapes your fill at your own pleasure; but you shall not put any in your vessel.
Deu 23:25When you come into your neighbor's standing grain, then you may pluck the ears with your hand; but you shall not move a sickle to your neighbor's standing grain.
