¹¹ Which thou hast commanded by thy servants the Prophets, saying, ^(A)The land whereunto ye go to possess it, is an unclean land, because of the filthiness of the people of the lands, which by their abominations, and by their uncleanness have filled it from corner to corner.

¹² Now therefore shall ye not give your daughters unto their sons, neither shall ye take their daughters unto your sons, nor seek their ^(B)peace nor wealth forever, that ye may be strong and eat the goodness of the land, and leave it for an inheritance to your sons forever.

¹³ And after all that is come upon us for our evil deeds, and for our great trespasses, (seeing that thou our God hast stayed us from being beneath ^[a]for our iniquities, and hast given us such deliverance.)
