Ezra 10:11-13

21st Century King James Version

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 foreign wives.”

¹² Then all the congregation answered and said with a loud voice, “As thou hast said, so must we do.

¹³ But the people are many, and it is a time of much rain, and we are not able to stand outside, neither is this a work of one day or two; for we are many who have transgressed in this thing.
