ગુજરાતીનહેમ્યા ૧૩:૨૫
મેં તેઓની વિરુદ્ધ થઈને તેઓનો તિરસ્કાર કર્યો, તેઓમાંના કેટલાકને માર્યા, તેઓના વાળ ખેંચી કાઢ્યા અને તેઓ પાસે ઈશ્વરના સમ ખવડાવ્યા કે, “અમે અમારી પોતાની દીકરીઓના લગ્ન તેઓના દીકરાઓ સાથે કરાવીશું નહિ અને તેઓની દીકરીઓ સાથે અમારા દીકરાઓના લગ્ન પણ કરાવીશું નહિ.
हिन्दीनहेम्याह १३:२५
तब मैंने उनको डाँटा और कोसा, और उनमें से कुछ को पिटवा दिया और उनके बाल नुचवाए; और उनको परमेश्वर की यह शपथ खिलाई, “हम अपनी बेटियाँ उनके बेटों के साथ ब्याह में न देंगे और न अपने लिये या अपने बेटों के लिये उनकी बेटियाँ ब्याह में लेंगे।

In context

23In those days I also saw the Jews who had married women of Ashdod, of Ammon, and of Moab;

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

25I contended with them, cursed them, struck certain of them, plucked off their hair, and made them swear by God, “You shall not give your daughters to their sons, nor take their daughters for your sons, or for yourselves.

26Didn’t Solomon king of Israel sin by these things? Yet among many nations there was no king like him, and he was loved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel. Nevertheless foreign women caused even him to sin.

27Shall we then listen to you to do all this great evil, to trespass against our God in marrying foreign women?”
