1 Esdras 8:70-72

Wycliffe Bible

⁷⁰ forsooth they were joined to the daughters of them, both they and their sons; and the holy seed was [or is] mingled (or mixed) together with the heathen folk of the land; and the provosts and master judges were partners of this wickedness, from the beginning of that realm.

⁷¹ And anon (or at once) as I heard these things, I cut my clothes, and the hallowed [or the sacred] coat, and I tore the hairs of mine head, and the beard, and I sat sorrowing, and dreary.

⁷² And there came to me then as many as ever were moved in (or by) the word of the Lord God of Israel, wailing me upon this wickedness (or while I wailed for this iniquity); and I sat sorrowful unto the eventide sacrifice. [And there came to me as many as ever were then moved in the word of the Lord God of Israel, me wailing upon the wickedness; and I sat sorrowful unto the eventide sacrifice.]
