Nehemiah 13:25-27
25So 1I contendedH7378 with them and cursedH7043 them and 2struckH5221 someH376 of them and pulledH4803 out their hairH4803, and 3made them swearH7650 by GodH430, “You shall not giveH5414 your daughtersH1323 to their sonsH1121, norH518 takeH5375 of their daughtersH1323 for your sonsH1121 or for yourselves.
264Did not SolomonH8010 kingH4428 of IsraelH3478 sinH2398 regardingH5921 theseH428 thingsH428? 5Yet among the manyH7227 nationsH1471 there was noH3808 kingH4428 likeH3644 him, and 6he was lovedH157 by his GodH430, and GodH430 madeH5414 him kingH4428 overH5921 allH3605 IsraelH3478; neverthelessH1571 the foreignH5237 womenH802 caused evenH1571 him to sinH2403.
277Do we then hearH8085 about you that you have committedH6213 allH3605 thisH2088 greatH1419 evilH7463 8by actingH4603 unfaithfullyH4603 against our GodH430 by 9marryingH3427 foreignH5237 womenH802?”
