Nehemiah 13:23-25
23In thoseH1992 daysH3117 I alsoH1571 sawH7200 that the JewsH3064 had 12marriedH3427 womenH802 from 3AshdodH796, 4AmmonH5985 and MoabH4125.
24As for their childrenH1121, halfH2677 spokeH1696 in the languageH797 of AshdodH797, and noneH369 of them was ableH5234 to speakH1696 the languageH3066 of JudahH3066, but 5the languageH3956 of his ownH5971 peopleH5971.
25So 6I contendedH7378 with them and cursedH7043 them and 7struckH5221 someH376 of them and pulledH4803 out their hairH4803, and 8made them swearH7650 by GodH430, “You shall not giveH5414 your daughtersH1323 to their sonsH1121, norH518 takeH5375 of their daughtersH1323 for your sonsH1121 or for yourselves.
