Ezra 10:1-5

Now when Ezra
<05830>
had prayed
<06419> (8692)_,
and when he had confessed
<03034> (8692)_,
weeping
<01058> (8802)
and casting himself down
<05307> (8693)
before
<06440>
the house
<01004>
of God
<0430>_,
there assembled
<06908> (8738)
unto him out of Israel
<03478>
a very
<03966>
great
<07227>
congregation
<06951>
of men
<0582>
and women
<0802>
and children
<03206>_:
for the people
<05971>
wept
<01058> (8804)
very
<07235> (8687)
sore
<01059>_.
{wept...: Heb. wept a great weeping}
And Shechaniah
<07935>
the son
<01121>
of Jehiel
<03171>_,
[one] of the sons
<01121>
of Elam
<05867>_,
answered
<06030> (8799)
and said
<0559> (8799)
unto Ezra
<05830>_,
We have trespassed
<04603> (8804)
against our God
<0430>_,
and have taken
<03427> (8686)
strange
<05237>
wives
<0802>
of the people
<05971>
of the land
<0776>_:
yet now there is
<03426>
hope
<04723>
in Israel
<03478>
concerning this thing.
Now therefore let us make
<03772> (8799)
a covenant
<01285>
with our God
<0430>
to put away
<03318> (8687)
all the wives
<0802>_,
and such as are born
<03205> (8737)
of them, according to the counsel
<06098>
of my lord
<0136>_,
and of those that tremble
<02730>
at the commandment
<04687>
of our God
<0430>_;
and let it be done
<06213> (8735)
according to the law
<08451>_.
{to put...: Heb. to bring forth}
Arise
<06965> (8798)_;
for [this] matter
<01697>
[belongeth] unto thee: we also [will be] with thee: be of good courage
<02388> (8798)_,
and do
<06213> (8798)
[it].
Then arose
<06965> (8799)
Ezra
<05830>_,
and made the chief
<08269>
priests
<03548>_,
the Levites
<03881>_,
and all Israel
<03478>_,
to swear
<07650> (8686)
that they should do
<06213> (8800)
according to this word
<01697>_.
And they sware
<07650> (8735)_.
