Nehemiah 13:1-3

GOD’S WORD Translation

13 On that day the Book of Moses was read while the people were listening. They heard the passage that no Ammonite or Moabite should ever be admitted into God’s assembly. ² (After all, they didn’t welcome the Israelites with food and water. Instead, they hired Balaam to curse the Israelites. But our God turned the curse into a blessing.) ³ After the people heard this Teaching, they separated the non-Israelites from the Israelites.
