Twenty-five verses set out who may join the LORD’s assembly, how the camp is to stay clean, and what a vow or a loan to a brother requires.
Full sung version coming soon.
Lyrics
He who is wounded in the stones Or has his privy member cut off shall not enter the congregation
A bastard shall not enter into the congregation Even to the tenth generation shall not any of his descendants Enter into the congregation
An Ammonite or Moabite shall not enter the congregation Even to the tenth generation Because they met you not with bread and with water
And because they hired against you Balaam the son Of Beor of Pethor of Mesopotamia to curse you Howbeit the LORD your God would not listen
But the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing Because the LORD your God loved you You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity
An Edomite shall not enter the congregation Because he is your brother An Egyptian shall not enter the congregation
Because you were a stranger in his land The children that are born of them In the third generation may enter the congregation
When you go out in the host against your enemies Then keep yourself from every evil thing
If there be among you any man That is not clean by reason of uncleanness Then shall he go outside the camp
