Deuteronomy 23:1-3
Contemporary English Version
Who Cannot Become One of the Lord's People
Moses said to Israel:
23 If a man's private parts have been crushed or cut off,[a] he cannot fully belong to the Lord's people.
2 No one born outside of a legal marriage, or any of their descendants for ten generations, can fully belong to the Lord's people.
3 (A) No Ammonites or Moabites, or any of their descendants for ten generations, can become part of Israel, the Lord's people.

- 23.1 a man's private parts have been crushed or cut off: This was sometimes done to show devotion to pagan gods.
