Now when Ezra
H6419 [H8692]
had prayed,
H3034 [H8692]
and when he had confessed,
H1058 [H8802]
weeping
H5307 [H8693]
and casting himself down
H6440
at the face of
H1004
the house
H430
of God,
H6908 [H8738]
there assembled
H3478
to him out of Israel
H3966
a very
H7227
great
H6951
congregation
H582
of men
H802
and women
H3206
and children:
H5971
for the people
H1058 [H8804]
wept
H7235 [H8687]
very
H1059
bitterly.
2
H7935
And Shechaniah
H1121
the son
H3171
of Jehiel,
H1121
one of the sons
H5867
of Elam,
H6030 [H8799]
answered
H559 [H8799]
and said
H5830
to Ezra,
H4603 [H8804]
We have trespassed
H430
against our God,
H3427 [H8686]
and have taken
H5237
foreign
H802
wives
H5971
of the people
H776
of the land:
H3426
yet now there is
H4723
hope
H3478
in Israel concerning this thing.
3
H3772 [H8799]
Now therefore let us make
H1285
a covenant
H430
with our God
H3318 [H8687]
to put away
H802
all the wives,
H3205 [H8737]
and such as are born
H6098
of them, according to the counsel
H136
of my lord,
H2730
and of those that tremble
H4687
at the commandment
H430
of our God;
H6213 [H8735]
and let it be done
H8451
according to the law.
4
H6965 [H8798]
Arise;
H1697
for this matter
H2388 [H8798]
belongeth to thee: we also will be with thee: be of good courage,
H6213 [H8798]
and do it.
5
H6965 [H8799]
Then arose
H5830
Ezra,
H8269
and made the chief
H3548
priests,
H3881
the Levites,
H3478
and all Israel,
H7650 [H8686]
to swear
H6213 [H8800]
that they should do
H1697
according to this word.
H7650 [H8735]
And they swore.
6
H5830
Then Ezra
H6965 [H8799]
arose
H6440
from the face of
H1004
the house
H430
of God,
H3212 [H8799]
and went
H3957
into the chamber
H3076
of Johanan
H1121
the son
H475
of Eliashib:
H3212 [H8799]
and when he came
H398 [H8804]
there, he ate
H3899
no bread,
H8354 [H8804]
nor drank
H4325
water:
H56 [H8693]
for he mourned
H4604
because of the treachery
H1473
of them that had been carried away.
7
H5674 H6963 [H8686]
And they made proclamation
H3063
throughout Judah
H3389
and Jerusalem
H1121
to all the sons
H1473
of the captivity,
H6908 [H8736]
that they should gather
H3389
at Jerusalem;
8
H935 [H8799]
And that whoever would not come
H7969
within three
H3117
days,
H6098
according to the counsel
H8269
of the princes
H2205
and the elders,
H7399
all his substance
H2763 [H8714]
should be secluded,
H914 [H8735]
and himself separated
H6951
from the congregation
H1473
of those that had been carried away.
9
H582
Then all the men
H3063
of Judah
H1144
and Benjamin
H6908 [H8735]
gathered
H3389
at Jerusalem
H7969
within three
H3117
days.
H8671
It was the ninth
H2320
month,
H6242
and the twentieth
H2320
day of the month;
H5971
and all the people
H3427 [H8799]
sat
H7339
in the street
H1004
of the house
H430
of God,
H7460 [H8688]
trembling
H1697
because of this matter,
H1653
and for the great rain.
10
H5830
And Ezra
H3548
the priest
H6965 [H8799]
stood up,
H559 [H8799]
and said
H4603 [H8804]
to them, Ye have transgressed,
H3427 [H8686]
and have taken
H5237
foreign
H802
wives,
H3254 [H8687]
to increase
H819
the guilt
H3478
of Israel.
11
H5414 [H8798]
Now therefore make
H8426
confession
H3068
to the LORD
H430
God
H1
of your fathers,
H6213 [H8798]
and do
H7522
his pleasure:
H914 [H8734]
and separate
H5971
yourselves from the people
H776
of the land,
H5237
and from the foreign
H802
wives.
12
H6951
Then all the congregation
H6030 [H8799]
answered
H559 [H8799]
and said
H1419
with a loud
H6963
voice,
H1697
As thou hast said,
H6213 [H8800]
so must we do.
13
H61
But
H5971
the people
H7227
are many,
H6256
and it is a time
H1653
of much rain,
H3581
and we are not able
H5975 [H8800]
to stand
H2351
abroad,
H4399
neither is this a work
H259
of one
H3117
day
H8147
or two:
H7235 [H8689]
for we are many
H6586 [H8800]
that have transgressed
H1697
in this thing.
14
H8269
Let now our rulers
H6951
of all the congregation
H5975 [H8799]
stand,
H3427 [H8689]
and let all them who have taken
H5237
foreign
H802
wives
H5892
in our cities
H935 [H8799]
come
H2163 [H8794]
at appointed
H6256
times,
H2205
and with them the elders
H5892
of every city,
H8199 [H8802]
and the judges,
H2740
until the burning
H639
anger
H430
of our God
H1697
for this matter
H7725 [H8687]
shall be turned from us.
15
H3129
Only Jonathan
H1121
the son
H6214
of Asahel
H3167
and Jahaziah
H1121
the son
H8616
of Tikvah
H5975 [H8804]
were employed
H4918
about this matter: and Meshullam
H7678
and Shabbethai
H3881
the Levite
H5826 [H8804]
helped them.
16
H1121
And the sons
H1473
of the captivity
H6213 [H8799]
did so.
H5830
And Ezra
H3548
the priest,
H582
with certain
H7218
heads
H1
of the fathers,
H1004
after the house
H1
of their fathers,
H8034
and all of them by their names,
H914 [H8735]
were separated,
H3427 [H8799]
and sat down
H259
in the first
H3117
day
H6224
of the tenth
H2320
month
H1875 [H8800]
to examine
H1697
the matter.
17
H3615 [H8762]
And they finished
H582
with all the men
H3427 [H8689]
that had taken
H5237
foreign
H802
wives
H259
by the first
H3117
day
H7223
of the first
H2320
month.
18
H1121
And among the sons
H3548
of the priests
H4672 [H8735]
there were found

And they gave
H3027
their hands
H3318 [H8687]
that they would put away
H802
their wives;
H818

H352
