1
Now when
these
things were done
,
the princes
came
to me, saying,
The people
of Israel
,
and the priests
,
and the Levites
,
have not separated
themselves from the people
of the lands
,
doing
according to their abominations
,
even
of the Canaanites
,
the Hittites
,
the Perizzites
,
the Jebusites
,
the Ammonites
,
the Moabites
,
the Egyptians
,
and the Amorites
.
2
For they have taken
of their daughters
for themselves, and for their sons:
so that the holy
seed
have mingled
themselves with the people
of
those
lands
: yea, the hand
of the princes
and rulers
hath been chief
in
this
trespass
.
3
And when I heard
this
thing
,
I rent
my garment
and my mantle
,
and plucked off
the hair
of my head
and of my beard
,
and sat down
astonied
.
4
Then were assembled
unto me every one that trembled
at the words
of the God
of Israel
,
because of the transgression
of those that had been carried away
;
and I sat
astonied
until
the evening
sacrifice
.
5
And at the evening
sacrifice
I arose up
from my heaviness
;
and having rent
my garment
and my mantle
,
I fell
upon my knees
,
and spread out
my hands
unto the LORD
my God
,
6
And said
,
O my God
,
I am ashamed
and blush
to lift up
my face
to thee, my God:
for our iniquities
are increased
over
our
head
,
and our trespass
is grown up
unto the heavens
.
7
Since the days
of our fathers
have
we
been
in a great
trespass
un
to
this
day
;
and for our iniquities
have we, our kings,
and
our priests
,
been delivered
into the hand
of the kings
of the lands
,
to the sword
,
to captivity
,
and to a spoil
,
and to confusion
of face
,
as
it is
this
day
.
8
And
now
for a little
space
grace
hath been
shewed
from the LORD
our
God
,
to leave
us a remnant to escape
,
and to give
us a nail
in his holy
place
,
that
our
God
may lighten
our eyes
,
and give
us a little
reviving
in our bondage
.
9
For we
were
bondmen
;
yet our God
hath not forsaken
us in our bondage
,
but hath extended
mercy
unto us in the sight
of the kings
of Persia
,
to give
us a reviving
,
to set up
the house
of our God,
and to repair
the desolations
thereof, and
to give
us a wall
in Judah
and in Jerusalem
.
10
And now, O our God,
what
shall we say
after
this? for we have forsaken
thy commandments
,
11
Which thou hast commanded
by
thy servants
the prophets
,
saying
,
The
land
,
unto
which
ye go
to possess
it, is an unclean
land
with the filthiness
of the people
of the lands
,
with their abominations
,
which
have filled
it from one end
to another
with their uncleanness
.
12
Now there
for
e give
not your daughters
unto their sons
,
neither take
their daughters
unto your sons
,
nor
seek
their peace
or their wealth
for
ever:
that ye may be strong
,
and eat
the good
of the land
,
and leave
it
for
an inheritance
to your children
for
ever.
13
And after
all
that is come
upon us for our evil
deeds
,
and for our great
trespass
,
seeing that thou our God
hast punished
us less
than our iniquities
deserve
, and hast given
us
such
deliverance
as this;
14
Should we again
break
thy commandments
,
and join in affinity
with the people
of
these
abominations? wouldest not thou
be angry
with us till thou hadst consumed
us
, so that
there
should be
no remnant nor escaping?
15
O LORD
God
of Israel
,
thou
art
righteous
:
for we remain
yet escaped
,
as
it is
this
day
: behold, we
are
before
thee in our trespasses
:
for we can
no
t stand
before
thee
because
of
this
.
