Deuteronomy 23:3-7
New American Standard Bible
Chapter 23
3
No Ammonite or Moabite may enter the assembly of the
Lord
; none of their
descendants,
even to the tenth generation, may ever enter the assembly of the
Lord
,
4
because they did not meet you with food and 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.
5
Nevertheless, the
Lord
your God was unwilling to listen to Balaam, but the
Lord
your God turned the curse into a blessing for you because the
Lord
your God loves you.
6
You shall never seek their peace or their prosperity all your days.
7
You shall not loathe an Edomite, for he is your brother; you shall not loathe an Egyptian, because you were a stranger in his land.
King James Version
Chapter 23
3
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:
4
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.
6
Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.
7
Thou shalt not abhor an Edomite; for he is thy brother: thou shalt not abhor an Egyptian; because thou wast a stranger in his land.
Christian Standard Bible
Chapter 23
3
No Ammonite or Moabite may enter the
Lord
’s assembly; none of their descendants, even to the tenth generation, may ever enter the
Lord
’s assembly.
4
This is because they did not meet you with food and water on the journey after you came out of Egypt, and because Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in Aram-naharaim was hired to curse you.
5
Yet the
Lord
your God would not listen to Balaam, but he turned the curse into a blessing for you because the
Lord
your God loves you.
6
Never pursue their welfare or prosperity as long as you live.
7
Do not despise an Edomite, because he is your brother. Do not despise an Egyptian, because you were a resident alien in his land.
New Living Translation
Chapter 23
3
No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants for ten generations may be admitted to the assembly of the
Lord
.
4
These nations did not welcome you with food and water when you came out of Egypt. Instead, they hired Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in distant Aram-naharaim to curse you.
5
But the
Lord
your God refused to listen to Balaam. He turned the intended curse into a blessing because the
Lord
your God loves you.
6
As long as you live, you must never promote the welfare and prosperity of the Ammonites or Moabites.
7
Do not detest the Edomites or the Egyptians, because the Edomites are your relatives and you lived as foreigners among the Egyptians.
English Standard Version
Chapter 23
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,
4
because 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.
5
But 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.
6
You shall not seek their peace or their prosperity all your days forever.
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.
New International Version
Chapter 23
3
No Ammonite or Moabite or any of their descendants may enter the assembly of the
Lord
, not even in the tenth generation.
4
For they did not come to meet you with bread and water on your way when you came out of Egypt, and they hired Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in Aram Naharaim to pronounce a curse on you.
5
However, the
Lord
your God would not listen to Balaam but turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the
Lord
your God loves you.
6
Do not seek a treaty of friendship with them as long as you live.
7
Do not despise an Edomite, for the Edomites are related to you. Do not despise an Egyptian, because you resided as foreigners in their country.
New King James Version
Chapter 23
3
“An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter the assembly of the
Lord
; even to the tenth generation none of his
descendants

5
Nevertheless the
Lord
your God would not listen to Balaam, but the
Lord
your God turned the curse into a blessing for you, because the
Lord
your God loves you.
