Ezra 9:2-6

For they have taken
<05375> (8804)
of their daughters
<01323>
for themselves, and for their sons
<01121>_:
so that the holy
<06944>
seed
<02233>
have mingled
<06148> (8694)
themselves with the people
<05971>
of [those] lands
<0776>_:
yea, the hand
<03027>
of the princes
<08269>
and rulers
<05461>
hath been chief
<07223>
in this trespass
<04604>_.
And when I heard
<08085> (8800)
this thing
<01697>_,
I rent
<07167> (8804)
my garment
<0899>
and my mantle
<04598>_,
and plucked off
<04803> (8799)
the hair
<08181>
of my head
<07218>
and of my beard
<02206>_,
and sat down
<03427> (8799)
astonied
<08074> (8789)_.
Then were assembled
<0622> (8735)
unto me every one that trembled
<02730>
at the words
<01697>
of the God
<0430>
of Israel
<03478>_,
because of the transgression
<04604>
of those that had been carried away
<01473>_;
and I sat
<03427> (8802)
astonied
<08074> (8789)
until the evening
<06153>
sacrifice
<04503>_.
And at the evening
<06153>
sacrifice
<04503>
I arose up
<06965> (8804)
from my heaviness
<08589>_;
and having rent
<07167> (8800)
my garment
<0899>
and my mantle
<04598>_,
I fell
<03766> (8799)
upon my knees
<01290>_,
and spread out
<06566> (8799)
my hands
<03709>
unto the LORD
<03068>
my God
<0430>_,
{heaviness: or, affliction}
And said
<0559> (8799)_,
O my God
<0430>_,
I am ashamed
<0954> (8804)
and blush
<03637> (8738)
to lift up
<07311> (8687)
my face
<06440>
to thee, my God
<0430>_:
for our iniquities
<05771>
are increased
<07235> (8804)
over
<04605>
[our] head
<07218>_,
and our trespass
<0819>
is grown up
<01431> (8804)
unto the heavens
<08064>_.
{trespass: or, guiltiness}
