Ezra 10:13-14

13However, there are many people, it is the rainy season, and we are not able to stand in the open. Nor can the task be done in one or two days, because we have done a great wrong in this matter.

14Please let our leaders 1represent all the assembly and have all those in our cities who have married foreign wives come at appointed times, together with the elders and judges of each city, until the 2fierce anger of our God on account of this matter is turned away from us.”
