તમે તમારા આખા આયુષ્યભર કદી તેઓની શાંતિ કે આબાદી શોધશો નહિ.
हिन्दीव्यवस्थाविवरण २३:६
तू जीवन भर उनका कुशल और भलाई कभी न चाहना।

In context

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.

8The children of the third generation who are born to them may enter into the LORD’s assembly.
