Ezra 9:11-12

11whichH834 You have commandedH6680 by Your servantsH5650 the prophetsH5030, sayingH559, ‘The landH776 whichH834 you are enteringH935 to possessH3423 is an uncleanH5079 landH776 with the uncleannessH5079 of the peoplesH5971 of the landsH776, with their abominationsH8441 whichH834 have filledH4390 it from endH6310 to endH6310, and 1with their impurityH2932.

12So nowH6258 do not 2giveH5414 your daughtersH1323 to their sonsH1121 norH408 takeH5375 their daughtersH1323 for your sonsH1121, and 3neverH3808 seekH1875 their peaceH7965 or their prosperityH2899, soH4616 thatH4616 you may be strongH2388 and may eatH398 the goodH2898 things of the landH776, and 4leaveH3423 it asH3423 anH3423 inheritanceH3423 to your sonsH1121 foreverH5704H5769.’
