Nehemiah 13:22-24

Darby Translation

²² And I commanded the Levites that they should purify themselves, and that they should come and keep the gates, to hallow the sabbath day. Remember this also for me, my God, and spare me according to thy great loving-kindness!

²³ In those days also I saw Jews that had married wives of Ashdod, of Ammon, [and] of Moab.

²⁴ And their children spoke half in the language of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews' language, but according to the language of each people.
