Забрана на смесени бракове
9 Когато свърши това, предводителите дойдоха при мене и казаха: „израилският народ, свещениците и левитите не пожелаха да се отделят от другите племена по тези земи с техните мерзости: хананейци, хетейци, ферезейци, йевусейци, амонци, моавци, египтяни и аморейци. 2 (A)Те си взеха техни дъщери за себе си и за синовете си и потомството на светия народ се смеси с другите племена; дори предводителите и знатните първи извършиха това беззаконие.“ 3 Като чух тези думи, раздрах дрехите си, скубех косите и брадата си и седях опечален. 4 Така седях в печал до вечерната жертва, а около мене се събраха всички, които се бояха от присъдата на Израилевия Бог заради престъпленията на завърналите се от плен.
5 А по време на вечерната жертва се отърсих от своето вцепенение и с раздрани дрехи паднах на колене, прострях ръце към Господа, своя Бог, 6 с думите:
„Боже мой, страхувам се, обзет от срам, да се изправя пред Тебе, Боже мой, защото потънахме в беззакония, а вината ни достигна небесата. 7 От времето на нашите прадеди до днес вината ни е голяма и поради нашите беззакония ние, царете ни и свещениците ни бяхме предадени във властта на чуждоземни царе, на меч, плен, ограбване и унижение, както е сега. 8 И ето за много малко време Господ, нашият Бог, ни дарява с милост, за да останат от нас неколцина оцелели и да се утвърдим на святото Му място. Нашият Бог просветли очите ни и ни даде малко отдих в робството ни. 9 Ние сме роби, но и в робството ни нашият Бог не ни изостави. Той е причина персийските царе да проявят милост към нас и ни съживи, за да издигнем дома на нашия Бог, да го възстановим от руините му и да намерим сигурност в Юдея и в Йерусалим.
10 Но сега какво да кажем, Боже наш, след това, което се случи? Защото ние отстъпихме от Твоите заповеди, 11 (B)които ни даде чрез Своите слуги, пророците, като каза: ‘Земята, която отивате да завладеете, е нечиста земя. Тя е осквернена от мерзостите на народите, които я населяват. Техните скверни идоли са я изпълнили открай докрай. 12 (C)Затова не давайте дъщерите си на синовете им и не взимайте техните дъщери за синовете си. Не спомагайте никога за техния мир и благоденствие, ако искате да се утвърдите и да се прехранвате с благата на тази земя и да я предадете на синовете си като наследство за вечни времена.’ 13 И след всичко, което ни сполетя заради нашите беззакония и голямата ни вина – макар че Ти, Боже, се смили и не ни наказа строго за греховете ни и ни даде такова избавление, – 14 отново ли ще нарушаваме Твоите заповеди и ще се сродяваме с тези народи, отдали се на идолопоклонство? Трябва ли Твоят гняв към нас докрай да ни погуби, за да не оцелее никой и да няма никакво спасение! 15 Господи, Боже на Израил! Ти си праведен, защото ни позволи да оцелеем до днес. Ето ние стоим пред Тебе със своята вина, защото след всичко, което извършихме, ние не можем да се изправим молитвено пред Тебе.“

9 (A)Като се свърши това, началниците се приближиха до мене и казаха: народът Израилев и свещениците и левитите не са се отделили от другоплеменните народи с техните гнусотии, от хананейци, хетейци, ферезейци, иевусейци, амонци, моавци, египтяни и аморейци,
2 (B)защото взеха техни дъщери за себе си и за синовете си, светото семе се смеси с другоплеменни народи, и при това ръката на най-видните и най-главните беше първа в това беззаконие.
3 Като чух тия думи, раздрах долната си и горна дреха, скубех космите на главата си и на брадата си и седях печален.
4 (C)Тогава се събраха при мене всички, които се побояха от думите на Бога Израилев поради престъпленията на преселниците, и аз седях печален до вечерната жертва.
5 А през време на вечерната жертва станах от мястото на моето тъгуване и с раздрана долна и горна дреха паднах на колене и прострях ръце към Господа, моя Бог,
6 (D)и казах: Боже мой, срам ме е и страх ме е да подигна лице към Тебе, мой Боже, защото беззаконията ни се натрупаха до над главата, и вината ни нарасна до небесата.
7 От дните на отците ни до днес ние сме в голяма вина, и поради нашите беззакония бидохме предадени ние, царете ни, свещениците ни, – в ръцете на другоземни царе, на меч, в плен, на разграбване и похула, както е и сега.
8 И ето, след малко време, ни се дарува милост от Господа, нашия Бог, Който остави у нас неколцина оцелели и ни даде да се утвърдим в мястото на светинята Му; просвети ни очите нашият Бог и ни даде да се съживим малко в робството си.
9 (E)Ние сме роби, но и в робството ни нашият Бог не ни остави. Той наведе към нас милостта на персийските царе, да ни дадат да се съживим, да въздигнем дома на нашия Бог, да го подновим от развалините му, и дадоха ни ограда в Иудея и в Иерусалим.
10 А сега, какво да кажем, Боже наш, след това? Защото ние отстъпихме от Твоите заповеди,
11 (F)които ни даде чрез Твоите раби, пророците, като каза: земята, в която отивате, за да я завладеете, е земя нечиста; тя е омърсена с нечистотиите на другоплеменните народи, с техните гнусотии, с които са я напълнили от край до край с мръсотиите си.
12 (G)Затова не давайте дъщерите си за синовете им, и дъщерите им не взимайте за синовете си, и не търсете мира им, нито благата им довека, за да се утвърдите и храните с благата на тая земя и да я предадете в наследство на синовете си довека.
13 И след всичко, що ни сполетя поради лошите ни дела и поради голямата наша вина, и, – защото Ти, Боже наш, ни пощади не според беззаконието ни и ни даде такова избавление, –
14 нима пак ще нарушаваме Твоите заповеди и ще влизаме в родство с тия отвратителни народи? Не ще ли се прогневиш нам дори до погубване, тъй че да няма оцелели и да няма спасени?
15 (H)Господи, Боже Израилев! Ти си праведен, защото ние оцеляхме доднес; и ето, ние сме в беззаконията си пред Твоето лице, макар че след това не би трябвало да стоим пред Твоето лице.

Ezra’s Prayer About Intermarriage
9 After these things had been done, the leaders came to me and said, “The people of Israel, including the priests and the Levites, have not kept themselves separate(A) from the neighboring peoples with their detestable practices, like those of the Canaanites, Hittites, Perizzites, Jebusites,(B) Ammonites,(C) Moabites,(D) Egyptians and Amorites.(E) 2 They have taken some of their daughters(F) as wives for themselves and their sons, and have mingled(G) the holy race(H) with the peoples around them. And the leaders and officials have led the way in this unfaithfulness.”(I)
3 When I heard this, I tore(J) my tunic and cloak, pulled hair from my head and beard and sat down appalled.(K) 4 Then everyone who trembled(L) at the words of the God of Israel gathered around me because of this unfaithfulness of the exiles. And I sat there appalled(M) until the evening sacrifice.
5 Then, at the evening sacrifice,(N) I rose from my self-abasement, with my tunic and cloak torn, and fell on my knees with my hands(O) spread out to the Lord my God 6 and prayed:
“I am too ashamed(P) and disgraced, my God, to lift up my face to you, because our sins are higher than our heads and our guilt has reached to the heavens.(Q) 7 From the days of our ancestors(R) until now, our guilt has been great. Because of our sins, we and our kings and our priests have been subjected to the sword(S) and captivity,(T) to pillage and humiliation(U) at the hand of foreign kings, as it is today.
8 “But now, for a brief moment, the Lord our God has been gracious(V) in leaving us a remnant(W) and giving us a firm place[a](X) in his sanctuary, and so our God gives light to our eyes(Y) and a little relief in our bondage. 9 Though we are slaves,(Z) our God has not forsaken us in our bondage. He has shown us kindness(AA) in the sight of the kings of Persia: He has granted us new life to rebuild the house of our God and repair its ruins,(AB) and he has given us a wall of protection in Judah and Jerusalem.
10 “But now, our God, what can we say after this? For we have forsaken the commands(AC) 11 you gave through your servants the prophets when you said: ‘The land you are entering(AD) to possess is a land polluted(AE) by the corruption of its peoples. By their detestable practices(AF) they have filled it with their impurity from one end to the other. 12 Therefore, do not give your daughters in marriage to their sons or take their daughters for your sons. Do not seek a treaty of friendship with them(AG) at any time, that you may be strong(AH) and eat the good things(AI) of the land and leave it to your children as an everlasting inheritance.’(AJ)
13 “What has happened to us is a result of our evil(AK) deeds and our great guilt, and yet, our God, you have punished us less than our sins deserved(AL) and have given us a remnant like this. 14 Shall we then break your commands again and intermarry(AM) with the peoples who commit such detestable practices? Would you not be angry enough with us to destroy us,(AN) leaving us no remnant(AO) or survivor? 15 Lord, the God of Israel, you are righteous!(AP) We are left this day as a remnant. Here we are before you in our guilt, though because of it not one of us can stand(AQ) in your presence.(AR)”

Intermarriage with Pagans
9 When these things were done, the leaders came to me, saying, “The people of Israel and the priests and the Levites have not (A)separated themselves from the peoples of the lands, (B)with respect to the abominations of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites. 2 For they have (C)taken some of their daughters as wives for themselves and their sons, so that the (D)holy seed is (E)mixed with the peoples of those lands. Indeed, the hand of the leaders and rulers has been foremost in this [a]trespass.” 3 So when I heard this thing, (F)I tore my garment and my robe, and plucked out some of the hair of my head and beard, and sat down (G)astonished. 4 Then everyone who (H)trembled at the words of the God of Israel assembled to me, because of the transgression of those who had been carried away captive, and I sat astonished until the (I)evening sacrifice.
5 At the evening sacrifice I arose from my fasting; and having torn my garment and my robe, I fell on my knees and (J)spread out my hands to the Lord my God. 6 And I said: “O my God, I am too (K)ashamed and humiliated to lift up my face to You, my God; for (L)our iniquities have risen higher than our heads, and our guilt has (M)grown up to the heavens. 7 Since the days of our fathers to this day (N)we have been very guilty, and for our iniquities (O)we, our kings, and our priests have been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the (P)sword, to captivity, to plunder, and to (Q)humiliation,[b] as it is this day. 8 And now for a little while grace has been shown from the Lord our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a peg in His holy place, that our God may (R)enlighten our eyes and give us a measure of revival in our bondage. 9 (S)For we were slaves. (T)Yet our God did not forsake us in our bondage; but (U)He extended mercy to us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to revive us, to repair the house of our God, to rebuild its ruins, and to give us (V)a wall in Judah and Jerusalem. 10 And now, O our God, what shall we say after this? For we have forsaken Your commandments, 11 which You commanded by Your servants the prophets, saying, ‘The land which you are entering to possess is an unclean land, with the (W)uncleanness of the peoples of the lands, with their abominations which have filled it from one end to another with their impurity. 12 Now therefore, (X)do not give your daughters as wives for their sons, nor take their daughters to your sons; and (Y)never seek their peace or prosperity, that you may be strong and eat the good of the land, and (Z)leave it as an inheritance to your children forever.’ 13 And after all that has come upon us for our evil deeds and for our great guilt, since You our God (AA)have punished us less than our iniquities deserve, and have given us such deliverance as this, 14 should we (AB)again break Your commandments, and (AC)join in marriage with the people committing these abominations? Would You not be (AD)angry with us until You had [c]consumed us, so that there would be no remnant or survivor? 15 O Lord God of Israel, (AE)You are righteous, for we are left as a remnant, as it is this day. (AF)Here we are before You, (AG)in our guilt, though no one can stand before You because of this!”

9 Now when these things were done, the princes came to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands, doing according to their abominations, even of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.
2 For they have taken of their daughters for themselves, and for their sons: so that the holy seed have mingled themselves with the people of those lands: yea, the hand of the princes and rulers hath been chief in this trespass.
3 And when I heard this thing, I rent my garment and my mantle, and plucked off the hair of my head and of my beard, and sat down astonied.
4 Then were assembled unto me every one that trembled at the words of the God of Israel, because of the transgression of those that had been carried away; and I sat astonied until the evening sacrifice.
5 And at the evening sacrifice I arose up from my heaviness; and having rent my garment and my mantle, I fell upon my knees, and spread out my hands unto the Lord my God,
6 And said, O my God, I am ashamed and blush to lift up my face to thee, my God: for our iniquities are increased over our head, and our trespass is grown up unto the heavens.
7 Since the days of our fathers have we been in a great trespass unto this day; and for our iniquities have we, our kings, and our priests, been delivered into the hand of the kings of the lands, to the sword, to captivity, and to a spoil, and to confusion of face, as it is this day.
8 And now for a little space grace hath been shewed from the Lord our God, to leave us a remnant to escape, and to give us a nail in his holy place, that our God may lighten our eyes, and give us a little reviving in our bondage.
9 For we were bondmen; yet our God hath not forsaken us in our bondage, but hath extended mercy unto us in the sight of the kings of Persia, to give us a reviving, to set up the house of our God, and to repair the desolations thereof, and to give us a wall in Judah and in Jerusalem.
10 And now, O our God, what shall we say after this? for we have forsaken thy commandments,
11 Which thou hast commanded by thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which ye go to possess it, is an unclean land with the filthiness of the people of the lands, with their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their uncleanness.
12 Now therefore give not your daughters unto their sons, neither take their daughters unto your sons, nor seek their peace or their wealth for ever: that ye may be strong, and eat the good of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your children for ever.
13 And after all that is come upon us for our evil deeds, and for our great trespass, seeing that thou our God hast punished us less than our iniquities deserve, and hast given us such deliverance as this;
14 Should we again break thy commandments, and join in affinity with the people of these abominations? wouldest not thou be angry with us till thou hadst consumed us, so that there should be no remnant nor escaping?
15 O Lord God of Israel, thou art righteous: for we remain yet escaped, as it is this day: behold, we are before thee in our trespasses: for we cannot stand before thee because of this.
