Don't even think of signing a peace treaty with Moab or Ammon.
Thou shalt not seek their peace nor their prosperity all thy days for ever.
Thou shalt not make peace with them, neither shalt thou seek their prosperity all the days of thy life for ever.

You must never, as long as you live, try to help the Ammonites or the Moabites in any way.
No Ammonite or Moabite is to enter the congregation of God, even to the tenth generation, nor any of his children, ever. Those nations didn’t treat you with hospitality on your travels out of Egypt, and on top of that they also hired Balaam son of Beor from Pethor in Mesopotamia to curse you. God, your God, refused to listen to Balaam but turned the curse into a blessing—how God, your God, loves you! Don’t even try to get along with them or do anything for them, ever.

However, the Lord, your God, would not listen to Balaam. The Lord, your God, turned a curse upon you into a blessing, for the Lord, your God, loved you.
Don’t wish for their peace or success as long as you live.
You must not seek peace and prosperity for them through all the ages to come.

Thou shalt not seek their shalom nor their tovat all thy yamim l’olam.
You shall not seek their peace or their prosperity all your days for ever.

You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days forever.
Thou shalt not make peace with them, neither thou shalt seek good things to them (nor shalt thou seek good things for them), in all the days of thy life (and) into without end.
