But Jehovah thy God would not listen to Balaam; and Jehovah thy God turned the curse into blessing unto thee, because Jehovah thy God loved thee.

and it shall be, towards evening, he shall bathe in water: and at the going down of the sun he may come inside the camp.

There shall be no prostitute amongst the daughters of Israel, nor any Sodomite amongst the sons of Israel.

of a foreigner thou mayest take interest, but of thy brother thou shalt not take interest; that Jehovah thy God may bless thee in all the business of thy hand in the land whither thou goest to possess it.

When thou vowest a vow to Jehovah thy God, thou shalt not delay to perform it; for Jehovah thy God will certainly require it of thee, and it shall be sin in thee.
22 Tedae caeng ham te na rhael atah na soah tholhnah khaw om van mahpawh.
But if thou forbear to vow, it shall be no sin in thee.
