Nehemiah 10:29-31
1599 Geneva Bible
29 The chief of them [a]received it for their brethren, and they came to the [b]curse and to the oath to walk in God’s Law, which was given by Moses the servant of God, to observe and do all the commandments of the Lord our God, and his judgments and his statutes:
30 And that we would not give our daughters to the people of the land, neither take their daughters for our sons.
31 And if the people of the land brought ware on the Sabbath, or any vittles to sell, [c]that we would not take it of them on the Sabbath, and on the holy days: (A)and that we would let the seventh year be free, and the debts of every [d]person.
