Deuteronomy 23:16 Context
14For the Lord thy God walketh in the midst of thy campe, to deliuer thee, and to giue vp thine enemies before thee: therefore shall thy campe be holy, that he see no vncleane thing in thee, and turne away from thee. 15¶ Thou shalt not deliuer vnto his master, the seruant which is escaped from his master vnto thee. 16He shall dwell with thee, euen among you, in that place which he shall choose, in one of thy gates where it liketh him best: thou shalt not oppresse him. 17¶ There shalbe no whore of the daughters of Israel, nor a Sodomite of the sonnes of Israel. 18Thou shalt not bring the hire of a whore, or the price of a dogge into the house of the Lord thy God for any vow: for euen both these are abomination vnto the Lord thy God.
