@ Now when
Ezra
had
prayed
, and when he had
confessed
,
weeping
and casting himself
down
before
the
house
of
God
, there
assembled
unto him out of
Israel
a
very
great
congregation
of
men
and
women
and
children
: for the
people
wept
very
sore
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:2
@ And
Shechaniah
the
son
of
Jehiel
Y@, one of the
sons
of
Elam
,
answered
and
said
unto
Ezra
, We have
trespassed
against our
God
, and have
taken
strange
wives
of the
people
of the
land
: yet now there
is
hope
in
Israel
concerning this thing.
strkjv@Ezra:10:3
@ Now therefore let us
make
a
covenant
with our
God
to put
away
all the
wives
, and such as are
born
of them, according to the
counsel
of my
lord
, and of those that
tremble
at the
commandment
of our
God
; and let it be
done
according to the
law
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:4
@
Arise
; for this
matter
belongeth unto thee: we also will be with thee: be of good
courage
, and
do
it.
strkjv@Ezra:10:5
@ Then
arose
Ezra
, and made the
chief
priests
, the
Levites
, and all
Israel
, to
swear
that they should
do
according to this
word
. And they
sware
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:6
@ Then
Ezra
rose
up
from
before
the
house
of
God
, and
went
into the
chamber
of
Johanan
the
son
of
Eliashib
: and when he
came
thither, he did
eat
no
bread
, nor
drink
water
: for he
mourned
because of the
transgression
of them that had been carried
away
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:7
@ And they made
proclamation
throughout
Judah
and
Jerusalem
unto all the
children
of the
captivity
, that they should gather themselves
together
unto
Jerusalem
;
strkjv@Ezra:10:8
@ And that whosoever would not
come
within
three
days
, according to the
counsel
of the
princes
and the
elders
, all his
substance
should be
forfeited
, and himself
separated
from the
congregation
of those that had been carried
away
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:9
@ Then all the
men
of
Judah
and
Benjamin
gathered themselves
together
unto
Jerusalem
within
three
days
. It was the
ninth
month
, on the
twentieth
day of the
month
; and all the
people
sat
in the
street
of the
house
of
God
,
trembling
because of this
matter
, and for the great
rain
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:10
@ And
Ezra
the
priest
stood
up
, and
said
unto them, Ye have
transgressed
, and have
taken
strange
wives
, to
increase
the
trespass
of
Israel
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:11
@ Now therefore
make
confession
unto the
LORD
God
of your
fathers
, and
do
his
pleasure
: and
separate
yourselves from the
people
of the
land
, and from the
strange
wives
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:12
@ Then all the
congregation
answered
and
said
with a
loud
voice
, As thou hast
said
, so must we
do
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:13
@
But
the
people
are
many
, and it is a
time
of much
rain
, and we are not
able
to
stand
without
, neither is this a
work
of
one
day
or
two
: for we are
many
that have
transgressed
in this
thing
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:14
@ Let now our
rulers
of all the
congregation
stand
, and let all them which have
taken
strange
wives
in our
cities
come
at
appointed
times
, and with them the
elders
of every
city
, and the
judges
thereof, until the
fierce
wrath
of our
God
for this
matter
be
turned
from us.
strkjv@Ezra:10:15
@ Only
Jonathan
the
son
of
Asahel

Jahaziah
the
son
of
Tikvah
were
employed
about this matter: and
Meshullam
and
Shabbethai
the
Levite
helped
them.
strkjv@Ezra:10:16
@ And the
children
of the
captivity
did
so
. And
Ezra
the
priest
, with
certain
chief
of the
fathers
, after the
house
of their
fathers
, and all of them by their
names
, were
separated
, and sat
down
in the
first
day
of the
tenth
month
to
examine
the
matter
.
strkjv@Ezra:10:17
