ગુજરાતીપુનર્નિયમ ૨૩:૫
પરંતુ યહોવાહ તમારા ઈશ્વરે બલામની વાત સાંભળી નહિ પણ યહોવાહ તમારા ઈશ્વરે તમારે માટે શાપને બદલીને આશીર્વાદ આપ્યો. કારણ કે યહોવાહ તમારા ઈશ્વર તમારા પર પ્રેમ રાખતા હતા.
हिन्दीव्यवस्थाविवरण २३:५
परन्तु तेरे परमेश्वर यहोवा ने बिलाम की न सुनी; किन्तु तेरे परमेश्वर यहोवा ने तेरे निमित्त उसके श्राप को आशीष में बदल दिया, इसलिए कि तेरा परमेश्वर यहोवा तुझ से प्रेम रखता था।

In context

3An Ammonite or a Moabite shall not enter into the LORD’s assembly; even to the tenth generation shall no one belonging to them enter into the LORD’s assembly forever,

4because they didn’t meet you with bread and with water on the way when you came out of Egypt, and because they hired against you Balaam the son of Beor from Pethor of Mesopotamia, to curse you.

5Nevertheless the LORD your God wouldn’t listen to Balaam, but the LORD your God turned the curse into a blessing to you, because the LORD your God loved you.

6You shall not seek their peace nor their prosperity all your days forever.

7You shall not abhor an Edomite, for he is your brother. You shall not abhor an Egyptian, because you lived as a foreigner in his land.
