10:2 And Shechaniah 7935 the son 1121 of Jehiel 3171, [one] of the sons 1121 of Elam 5867, answered 60308799 and said 5598799 unto Ezra 5830, We have trespassed 46038804 against our God 430, and have taken 34278686 strange 5237 wives 802 of the people 5971 of the land 776: yet now there is 3426 hope 4723 in Israel 3478 concerning this thing.
10:3 Now therefore let us make 37728799 a covenant 1285 with our God 430 to put away 33188687 all the wives 802, and such as are born 32058737 of them, according to the counsel 6098 of my lord 136, and of those that tremble 2730 at the commandment 4687 of our God 430; and let it be done 62138735 according to the law 8451.(to put…: Heb. to bring forth)
10:4 Arise 69658798; for [this] matter 1697 [belongeth] unto thee: we also [will be] with thee: be of good courage 23888798, and do 62138798 [it].
10:6 Then Ezra 5830 rose up 69658799 from before 6440 the house 1004 of God 430, and went 32128799 into the chamber 3957 of Johanan 3076 the son 1121 of Eliashib 475: and [when] he came 32128799 thither, he did eat 3988804 no bread 3899, nor drink 83548804 water 4325: for he mourned 568693 because of the transgression 4604 of them that had been carried away 1473.
10:7 And they made proclamation 567486866963 throughout Judah 3063 and Jerusalem 3389 unto all the children 1121 of the captivity 1473, that they should gather themselves together 69088736 unto Jerusalem 3389;
10:8 And that whosoever would not come 9358799 within three 7969 days 3117, according to the counsel 6098 of the princes 8269 and the elders 2205, all his substance 7399 should be forfeited 27638714, and himself separated 9148735 from the congregation 6951 of those that had been carried away 1473.(forfeited: Heb. devoted)
10:9 Then all the men 582 of Judah 3063 and Benjamin 1144 gathered themselves together 69088735 unto Jerusalem 3389 within three 7969 days 3117. It [was] the ninth 8671 month 2320, on the twentieth 6242 [day] of the month 2320; and all the people 5971 sat 34278799 in the street 7339 of the house 1004 of God 430, trembling 74608688 because of [this] matter 1697, and for the great rain 1653.(the great…: Heb. the showers)
10:10 And Ezra 5830 the priest 3548 stood up 69658799, and said 5598799 unto them, Ye have transgressed 46038804, and have taken 34278686 strange 5237 wives 802, to increase 32548687 the trespass 819 of Israel 3478.(have taken: Heb. have caused to dwell, or, have brought back)
10:11 Now therefore make 54148798 confession 8426 unto the LORD 3068 God 430 of your fathers 1, and do 62138798 his pleasure 7522: and separate 9148734 yourselves from the people 5971 of the land 776, and from the strange 5237 wives 802.
10:13 But 61 the people 5971 [are] many 7227, and [it is] a time 6256 of much rain 1653, and we are not able 3581 to stand 59758800 without 2351, neither [is this] a work 4399 of one 259 day 3117 or two 8147: for we are many 72358689 that have transgressed 65868800 in this thing 1697.(we are many…: or, we have greatly offended in this thing)
10:14 Let now our rulers 8269 of all the congregation 6951 stand 59758799, and let all them which have taken 34278689 strange 5237 wives 802 in our cities 5892 come 9358799 at appointed 21638794 times 6256, and with them the elders 2205 of every city 5892, and the judges 81998802 thereof, until the fierce 2740 wrath 639 of our God 430 for this matter 1697 be turned 77258687 from us.(for this…: or, till this matter be dispatched)
10:15 Only Jonathan 3129 the son 1121 of Asahel 6214 and Jahaziah 3167 the son 1121 of Tikvah 8616 were employed 59758804 about this [matter]: and Meshullam 4918 and Shabbethai 7678 the Levite 3881 helped 58268804 them.(were…: Heb. stood)
10:16 And the children 1121 of the captivity 1473 did so 62138799.

10:18 And among the sons 1121 of the priests 3548 there were found 46728735 that had taken 34278689 strange 5237 wives 802: [namely], of the sons 1121 of Jeshua 3442 the son 1121 of Jozadak 3136, and his brethren 251; Maaseiah 4641, and Eliezer 461, and Jarib 3402, and Gedaliah 1436.
10:19 And they gave 54148799 their hands 3027 that they would put away 33188687 their wives 802; and [being] guilty 818, [they offered] a ram 352 of the flock 6629 for their trespass 819.
