1 Esdras 8:84
Print
For you, Lord, removed our sins, and you gave us such a root as this. Yet we again turned away to disobey your Law by intermixing with the impure of the neighboring peoples.
Therefore do not give your daughters in marriage to their descendants, and do not take their daughters for your descendants;
and gave us such a root as this, but we turned back again to transgress your law by mixing with the uncleanness of the nations of the land.
Therefore do not give your daughters in marriage to their sons, and do not take their daughters for your sons;
And now therefore ye shall not join your daughters to their sons, and their daughters ye shall not take to yours sons;
