Nehemiah 13:23-25
23In those days I also saw that the Jews had 12married women from 3Ashdod, 4Ammon and Moab.
24As for their children, half spoke in the language of Ashdod, and none of them was able to speak the language of Judah, but 5the language of his own people.
25So 6I contended with them and cursed them and 7struck some of them and pulled out their hair, and 8made them swear by God, “You shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor take of their daughters for your sons or for yourselves.
