Ezra 10:9-11

Douay-Rheims 1899 American Edition

⁹ Then all the men of Juda, and Benjamin gathered themselves together to Jerusalem within three days, in the ninth month, the twentieth day of the month: and all the people sat in the street of the house of God, trembling because of the sin, and the rain.

¹⁰ And Esdras the priest stood up, and said to them: You have transgressed, and taken strange wives, to add to the sins of Israel.

¹¹ And now make confession to the Lord the God of your fathers, and do his pleasure, and separate yourselves from the people of the land, and from your strange wives.
