Fimmta bók Móse 23
Icelandic Bible
23 Enginn sá, er meiddur hefir verið eistnamari eða hreðurskorinn, má vera í söfnuði Drottins.
2 Enginn bastarður má vera í söfnuði Drottins, jafnvel ekki tíundi maður frá honum má vera í söfnuði Drottins.
3 Enginn Ammóníti eða Móabíti má vera í söfnuði Drottins. Jafnvel ekki tíundi maður frá þeim má vera í söfnuði Drottins að eilífu,
4 vegna þess að þeir komu ekki í móti yður með brauð og vatn, þá er þér voruð á leiðinni frá Egyptalandi, og vegna þess að þeir keyptu í móti þér Bíleam Beórsson frá Petór í Mesópótamíu til þess að bölva þér.
5 En Drottinn Guð þinn vildi ekki hlýða á Bíleam, og Drottinn Guð þinn sneri bölvaninni í blessan fyrir þig, af því að Drottinn Guð þinn elskaði þig.
6 Þú skalt aldrei alla ævi þína láta þér annt um farsæld þeirra og velgengni.
7 Þú skalt eigi hafa andstyggð á Edómítum, því að þeir eru bræður þínir. Þú skalt eigi hafa andstyggð á Egyptum, því að þú dvaldir sem útlendingur í landi þeirra.
8 Afkomendur þeirra í þriðja lið mega vera í söfnuði Drottins.
9 Þegar þú fer í hernað móti óvinum þínum, þá skalt þú gæta þín við öllum illum hlutum.
10 Ef einhver, sem með þér er, er ekki hreinn vegna þess, sem hann hefir hent um nóttina, þá skal hann ganga út fyrir herbúðirnar og má eigi koma inn í herbúðirnar,
11 en að áliðnum degi skal hann lauga sig í vatni, og er sól er setst, má hann aftur ganga inn í herbúðirnar.
12 Þú skalt og hafa afvikinn stað fyrir utan herbúðirnar. Þangað skalt þú fara erinda þinna.
13 Og þú skalt hafa spaða í tækjum þínum, og er þú þarft að setjast niður úti, þá skalt þú grafa holu með honum, moka því næst aftur yfir og hylja saurindin.
14 Því að Drottinn Guð þinn er á gangi um herbúðir þínar til þess að frelsa þig og gefa óvini þína á þitt vald; fyrir því skulu herbúðir þínar helgar vera, svo að hann sjái ekkert óþokkalegt hjá þér og snúi sér burt frá þér.
15 Þú skalt eigi framselja í hendur húsbónda þræl, sem flúið hefir til þín frá húsbónda sínum.
16 Hann skal setjast að hjá þér, í landi þínu, á þeim stað, er hann sjálfur velur, í einhverri af borgum þínum, þar sem honum best líkar. Þú skalt ekki sýna honum ójöfnuð.
17 Á meðal Ísraels dætra má engin vera, sú er helgi sig saurlifnaði, og á meðal Ísraels sona má enginn vera, sá er helgi sig saurlifnaði.
18 Þú skalt eigi bera skækjulaun eða hundsgjald inn í hús Drottins Guðs þíns eftir neinu heiti, því að einnig hvort tveggja þetta er Drottni Guði þínum andstyggilegt.
19 Þú skalt ekki taka fjárleigu af bróður þínum, hvorki fyrir peninga, matvæli né nokkurn hlut annan, er ljá má gegn leigu.
20 Af útlendum manni mátt þú taka fjárleigu, en af bróður þínum mátt þú ekki taka fjárleigu, til þess að Drottinn Guð þinn blessi þig í öllu því, er þú tekur þér fyrir hendur í landinu, sem þú heldur nú inn í til þess að taka það til eignar.
21 Þegar þú gjörir Drottni Guði þínum heit, þá skalt þú ekki láta dragast að efna það, því að ella mun Drottinn Guð þinn krefjast þess af þér og það verða þér til syndar.
22 En þótt þú sleppir því að gjöra heit, þá hvílir engin sekt á þér fyrir það.
23 Það sem komið hefir yfir varir þínar, skalt þú halda og breyta eftir því, eins og þú sjálfviljuglega hefir heitið Drottni Guði þínum, það sem þú hefir talað með munni þínum.
24 Þegar þú kemur í víngarð náunga þíns, þá mátt þú eta vínber eins og þig lystir, þar til er þú ert mettur, en í ker þitt mátt þú ekkert láta.
25 Þegar þú kemur á kornakur náunga þíns, þá mátt þú tína öx með hendinni, en sigð mátt þú ekki sveifla yfir kornstöngum náunga þíns.

Exclusion From the Assembly
23 [a]No one who has been emasculated(A) by crushing or cutting may enter the assembly of the Lord.
2 No one born of a forbidden marriage[b] nor any of their descendants may enter the assembly of the Lord, not even in the tenth generation.
3 No Ammonite(B) or Moabite or any of their descendants may enter the assembly of the Lord, not even in the tenth generation.(C) 4 For they did not come to meet you with bread and water(D) on your way when you came out of Egypt, and they hired Balaam(E) son of Beor from Pethor in Aram Naharaim[c](F) to pronounce a curse on you.(G) 5 However, the Lord your God would not listen to Balaam but turned the curse(H) into a blessing for you, because the Lord your God loves(I) you. 6 Do not seek a treaty(J) of friendship with them as long as you live.(K)
7 Do not despise an Edomite,(L) for the Edomites are related to you.(M) Do not despise an Egyptian, because you resided as foreigners in their country.(N) 8 The third generation of children born to them may enter the assembly of the Lord.
Uncleanness in the Camp
9 When you are encamped against your enemies, keep away from everything impure.(O) 10 If one of your men is unclean because of a nocturnal emission, he is to go outside the camp and stay there.(P) 11 But as evening approaches he is to wash himself, and at sunset(Q) he may return to the camp.(R)
12 Designate a place outside the camp where you can go to relieve yourself. 13 As part of your equipment have something to dig with, and when you relieve yourself, dig a hole and cover up your excrement. 14 For the Lord your God moves(S) about in your camp to protect you and to deliver your enemies to you. Your camp must be holy,(T) so that he will not see among you anything indecent and turn away from you.
Miscellaneous Laws
15 If a slave has taken refuge(U) with you, do not hand them over to their master.(V) 16 Let them live among you wherever they like and in whatever town they choose. Do not oppress(W) them.
17 No Israelite man(X) or woman is to become a shrine prostitute.(Y) 18 You must not bring the earnings of a female prostitute or of a male prostitute[d] into the house of the Lord your God to pay any vow, because the Lord your God detests them both.(Z)
19 Do not charge a fellow Israelite interest, whether on money or food or anything else that may earn interest.(AA) 20 You may charge a foreigner(AB) interest, but not a fellow Israelite, so that the Lord your God may bless(AC) you in everything you put your hand to in the land you are entering to possess.
21 If you make a vow to the Lord your God, do not be slow to pay it,(AD) for the Lord your God will certainly demand it of you and you will be guilty of sin.(AE) 22 But if you refrain from making a vow, you will not be guilty.(AF) 23 Whatever your lips utter you must be sure to do, because you made your vow freely to the Lord your God with your own mouth.
24 If you enter your neighbor’s vineyard, you may eat all the grapes you want, but do not put any in your basket. 25 If you enter your neighbor’s grainfield, you may pick kernels with your hands, but you must not put a sickle to their standing grain.(AG)

King James Version
Deuteronomy 23
King James Version
23 He that is wounded in the stones, or hath his privy member cut off, shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord.
2 A bastard shall not enter into the congregation of the Lord; even to his tenth generation shall he not enter into the congregation of the Lord.
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.
8 The children that are begotten of them shall enter into the congregation of the Lord in their third generation.
9 When the host goeth forth against thine enemies, then keep thee from every wicked thing.
10 If there be among you any man, that is not clean by reason of uncleanness that chanceth him by night, then shall he go abroad out of the camp, he shall not come within the camp:
11 But it shall be, when evening cometh on, 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 without the camp, whither thou shalt go forth abroad:
13 And thou shalt have a paddle upon thy weapon; and it shall be, when thou wilt ease thyself abroad, thou shalt dig therewith, and shalt turn back and cover that which cometh from thee:
14 For the Lord thy God walketh 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.
15 Thou shalt not deliver unto his master the servant which is escaped from his master unto thee:
16 He shall dwell with thee, even among you, in that place which he shall choose in one of thy gates, where it liketh him best: thou shalt not oppress him.
17 There shall be no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a sodomite of the sons of Israel.
18 Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dog, into the house of the Lord thy God for any vow: for even both these are abomination unto the Lord thy God.
19 Thou shalt not lend upon usury to thy brother; usury of money, usury of victuals, usury of any thing that is lent upon usury:
20 Unto a stranger thou mayest lend upon usury; but unto thy brother thou shalt not lend upon usury: that the Lord thy God may bless thee in all that thou settest thine hand to in the land whither thou goest to possess it.
21 When thou shalt vow a vow unto the Lord thy God, thou shalt not slack to pay it: for the Lord thy God will surely require it of thee; and it would be sin in thee.
22 But if thou shalt forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
23 That which is gone out of thy lips thou shalt keep and perform; even a freewill offering, according as thou hast vowed unto the Lord thy God, which thou hast promised with thy mouth.
24 When thou comest into thy neighbour's vineyard, then thou mayest eat grapes thy fill at thine own pleasure; but thou shalt not put any in thy vessel.
25 When thou comest into the standing corn of thy neighbour, then thou mayest pluck the ears with thine hand; but thou shalt not move a sickle unto thy neighbour's standing corn.
