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)_.
