1 Esdras 8:79-81

Common English Bible

⁷⁹ Now that we have these things, what will we say, Lord? We have violated your commandments, which you gave by your servants the prophets: ⁸⁰ “The land that you are about to possess is a land polluted with the foreigners of the land. The foreigners have filled it with their impurity. ⁸¹ So don’t give your daughters in marriage to their sons, and don’t take their daughters for your sons.
