Ezra 10:5-8

10:5

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)_.

10:6

Then Ezra
<05830>

rose up
<06965> (8799)

from before
<06440>

the house
<01004>

of God
<0430>_,

and went
<03212> (8799)

into the chamber
<03957>

of Johanan
<03076>

the son
<01121>

of Eliashib
<0475>_:

and [when] he came
<03212> (8799)

thither, he did eat
<0398> (8804)

no bread
<03899>_,

nor drink
<08354> (8804)

water
<04325>_:

for he mourned
<056> (8693)

because of the transgression
<04604>

of them that had been carried away
<01473>_.

10:7

And they made proclamation
<05674> (8686) <06963>

throughout Judah
<03063>

and Jerusalem
<03389>

unto all the children
<01121>

of the captivity
<01473>_,

that they should gather themselves together
<06908> (8736)

unto Jerusalem
<03389>_;

10:8

And that whosoever would not come
<0935> (8799)

within three
<07969>

days
<03117>_,

according to the counsel
<06098>

of the princes
<08269>

and the elders
<02205>_,

all his substance
<07399>

should be forfeited
<02763> (8714)_,

and himself separated
<0914> (8735)

from the congregation
<06951>

of those that had been carried away
<01473>_.
