4 No Ammonite or Moabite may ever come into the assembly of the Lord, nor may any of their descendants even to the tenth generation come into the assembly of the Lord,
5 because they would not come to meet you with food and water on your journey after you left Egypt, and because they hired Balaam, son of Beor, from Pethor in Aram Naharaim, to curse you.
6 The Lord, your God, would not listen to Balaam but turned his curse into a blessing for you, because the Lord, your God, loves you.
7 Never seek their welfare or prosperity as long as you live.
8 Do not abhor the Edomite: he is your brother. Do not abhor the Egyptian: you were a resident alien in his country.
9 Children born to them may come into the assembly of the Lord in the third generation.
10 When in camp during an expedition against your enemies, you shall keep yourselves from anything bad.
