Lexham English Bible
16 He shall reside with you in your midst in the place that he chooses in one of your towns wherever he pleases;[a] you shall not oppress him.
17 “No woman of Israel[b] shall be a temple prostitute, and no man of Israel[c] shall be a male shrine prostitute. 18 You may not bring the hire[d] of a prostitute or the earnings of a male prostitute[e] into the house of Yahweh your God, for any vow offerings, because both[f] are a detestable thing to Yahweh your God.
