23 Also, in those days, I have seen the Jews [who] have settled women of Ashdod, of Ammon, of Moab.
24 And of their sons, half are speaking Ashdoditish--and are not knowing to speak Jewish--and according to the language of people and people.
25 And I strive with them, and declare them vile, and smite certain of them, and pluck off their hair, and cause them to swear by Elohim, `You do not give your daughters to their sons, nor do you take of their daughters to your sons, and to yourselves.
26 `By these did not Solomon king of Israel sin? and among the many nations there was no king like him, and beloved by his Elohim he was, and Elohim makes him king over all Israel--even him did the strange women cause to sin.
27 And to you do we hearken to do all this great evil, to trespass against our Elohim, to settle strange women?.
28 And [one] of the sons of Joiada son of Eliashib the high priest, [is] son-in-law to Sanballat the Horonite, and I cause him to flee from off me.
29 Be mindful of them, O my Elohim, for the redeemed of the priesthood, and the covenant of the priesthood, and of the Levites.
