Ezra 10:7-9

Tree of Life Version

⁷ A proclamation was then circulated throughout Judah and Jerusalem for all of the exiles to assemble in Jerusalem. ⁸ Everyone who did not come within three days, would forfeit all his property according to the counsel of the officials and the elders, and would himself be excluded from the assembly of the exiles.

⁹ So within three days all the men of Judah and Benjamin assembled in Jerusalem. On the twentieth day of the ninth month, all the people were sitting in the plaza before the House of God, trembling because of this matter and because of the rain.
