Ezra 9:1-4
1Now when these things were doneH3615, the princesH8269 cameH5066 to me, sayingH559, The peopleH5971 of IsraelH3478, and the priestsH3548, and the LevitesH3881, have not separatedH914 themselves from the peopleH5971 of the landsH776, doing according to their abominationsH8441, even of the CanaanitesH3669, the HittitesH2850, the PerizzitesH6522, the JebusitesH2983, the AmmonitesH5984, the MoabitesH4125, the EgyptiansH4713, and the AmoritesH567.
2For they have takenH5375 of their daughtersH1323 for themselves, and for their sonsH1121: so that the holyH6944 seedH2233 have mingledH6148 themselves with the peopleH5971 of those landsH776: yea, the handH3027 of the princesH8269 and rulersH5461 hath been chiefH7223 in this trespassH4604.
3And when I heardH8085 this thingH1697, I rentH7167 my garmentH899 and my mantleH4598, and plucked offH4803 the hairH8181 of my headH7218 and of my beardH2206, and sat downH3427 astoniedH8074.
4Then were assembledH622 unto me every one that trembledH2730 at the wordsH1697 of the GodH430 of IsraelH3478, because of the transgressionH4604 of those that had been carried awayH1473; and I satH3427 astoniedH8074 until the eveningH6153 sacrificeH4503.
