Deuteronomy 23:4 in Context — Deuteronomy 23
2 No entrará bastardo en la congregación de Jehová: ni aun en la décima generación entrará en la congregación de Jehová.
3 No entrará Ammonita ni Moabita en la congregación de Jehová; ni aun en la décima generación entrará en la congregación de Jehová para siempre:
4 Por cuanto no os salieron á recibir con pan y agua al camino, cuando salisteis de Egipto; y porque alquiló contra ti á Balaam hijo de Beor de Pethor de Mesopotamia de Siria, para que te maldijese.
5 Mas no quiso Jehová tu Dios oir á Balaam; y Jehová tu Dios te volvió la maldición en bendición, porque Jehová tu Dios te amaba.
6 No procurarás la paz de ellos ni su bien en todos los días para siempre.
