Ezra 10:11-13

Living Bible

¹¹ Confess your sin to the Lord God of your fathers and do what he demands: separate yourselves from the heathen people about you and from these women.”

¹² Then all the men spoke up and said, “We will do what you have said. ¹³ But this isn’t something that can be done in a day or two, for there are many of us involved in this sinful affair. And it is raining so hard that we can’t stay out here much longer.
