Ezra 10:5-7

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁵ So Esdras arose, and made the chiefs of the priests and of the Levites, and all Israel, to swear that they would do according to this word, and they swore.

⁶ And Esdras rose up from before the house of God, and went to the chamber of Johanan the son of Eliasib, and entered in thither: he ate no bread, and drank no water: for he mourned for the transgression of them that were come out of the captivity.

⁷ And proclamation was made in Juda and Jerusalem to all the children of the captivity, that they should assemble together into Jerusalem.
