Ezra 10:8-14

8and that whoeverH3605H834 did not comeH935 within threeH7969 daysH3117, in accordance with the counselH6098 of the leadersH8269 and the eldersH2205, allH3605 his propertyH7399 would be forfeitedH2763, and he himselfH1931 would be excludedH914 from the assemblyH6951 of the exilesH1473.

9So allH3605 the menH376 of JudahH3063 and BenjaminH1144 assembledH6908 at JerusalemH3389 within the threeH7969 daysH3117. It was the ninthH8671 monthH2320 on the twentiethH6242 of the monthH2320, and allH3605 the peopleH5971 satH3427 in the publicH7339 squareH7339 before the houseH1004 of GodH430, 1tremblingH7460 becauseH5921 of this matterH1697 and the heavy rainH1653. 10Then EzraH5830 the priestH3548 stoodH6965 upH6965 and saidH559 to them, “You have beenH4603 unfaithfulH4603 and have marriedH3427 foreignH5237 wivesH802, addingH3254 to the guiltH819 of IsraelH3478. 11NowH6258 therefore, 2makeH5414 confessionH8426 to the LordH3068 GodH430 of your fathersH1 and 3doH6213 His willH7522; and 4separateH914 yourselves from the peoplesH5971 of the landH776 and from the foreignH5237 wivesH802.” 12Then allH3605 the assemblyH6951 repliedH6030 with a loudH1419 voiceH6963, “It is 5our dutyH5921 to doH6213 exactlyH3651 as you have saidH1697! 13HoweverH61, there are manyH7227 peopleH5971, it is the rainyH1653 seasonH6256, and we are not ableH3581 to standH5975 in the openH2351. NorH3808 can the taskH4399 be done in oneH259 or twoH8147 daysH3117, becauseH3588 we have doneH6586 a greatH7235 wrongH6586 in thisH2088 matterH1697. 14PleaseH4994 let our leadersH8269 6representH5975 allH3605 the assemblyH6951 and have allH3605 those in our citiesH5892 who have marriedH3427 foreignH5237 wivesH802 comeH935 at appointedH2163 timesH6256, togetherH5973 withH5973 the eldersH2205 and judgesH8199 of eachH5892 cityH5892, untilH5704 the 7fierceH2740 angerH639 of our GodH430 onH5704 accountH5704 ofH5704 thisH2088 matterH1697 is turnedH7725 awayH7725 from us.”
