4
because they did not meet you 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.
8
The sons that are begotten of them shall enter into the congregation of the LORD in their third generation.
9
When the host goes forth against thine enemies, then keep thyself from every evil thing.
10
When there is among you any man that is not clean by reason of uncleanness that chances by night, then he shall go abroad out of the camp; he shall not come within the camp.
11
And it shall be when evening comes, he shall wash
himself with water, and when the sun is down, he shall come into the camp
again.
12
Thou shalt have a place also outside the camp where thou shalt go forth abroad;
13
and thou shalt have a stake among thy weapons; and it shall be when thou wilt ease thyself abroad, thou shalt dig with it and shalt turn back and cover thy excrement;
14
for the LORD thy God walks 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.
