Deuteronomy 23:16 in Context — Deuteronomy 23
14 Car l’Éternel, ton Dieu, marche au milieu de ton camp pour te protéger et pour livrer tes ennemis devant toi; ton camp devra donc être saint, afin que l’Éternel ne voie chez toi rien d’impur, et qu’il ne se détourne point de toi.
15 Tu ne livreras point à son maître un esclave qui se réfugiera chez toi, après l’avoir quitté.
16 Il demeurera chez toi, au milieu de toi, dans le lieu qu’il choisira, dans l’une de tes villes, où bon lui semblera: tu ne l’opprimeras point.
17 Il n’y aura aucune prostituée parmi les filles d’Israël, et il n’y aura aucun prostitué parmi les fils d’Israël.
18 Tu n’apporteras point dans la maison de l’Éternel, ton Dieu, le salaire d’une prostituée ni le prix d’un chien, pour l’accomplissement d’un vœu quelconque; car l’un et l’autre sont en abomination à l’Éternel, ton Dieu.
