Now viewing scripture range from the book of 1 Esdras chapter 8:84 through chapter 8:87...
84 Therefore now shall ye not join your daughters unto their sons, neither shall ye take their daughters unto your sons.
85 Moreover ye shall never seek to have peace with them, that ye may be strong, and eat the good things of the land, and that ye may leave the inheritance of the land unto your children for evermore.
86 And all that is befallen is done unto us for our wicked works and great sins; for thou, O Lord, didst make our sins light,
87 And didst give unto us such a root: but we have turned back again to transgress thy law, and to mingle ourselves with the uncleanness of the nations of the land.
