Deuteronomy 23:12-14

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

¹² Thou shalt have a place without the camp, to which thou mayst go for the necessities of nature,

¹³ Carrying a paddle at thy girdle. And when thou sittest down, thou shalt dig round about, and with the earth that is dug up thou shalt cover

¹⁴ That which thou art eased of: (for the Lord thy God walketh in the midst of thy camp, to deliver thee, and to give up thy enemies to thee:) and let thy camp be holy, and let no uncleanness appear therein, lest he go away from thee.
