Nehemiah 13:24-26

Names of God Bible

²⁴ Half their children spoke the language of Ashdod or one of the other languages, but they couldn’t understand the language of Judah well enough to speak it. ²⁵ So I reprimanded those Jews, cursed them, beat some of them, and pulled out their hair. I made them swear by Elohim: “We won’t allow our daughters to marry their sons, and we won’t allow their daughters to marry us or our sons.” ²⁶ I said, “Wasn’t it because of marriages like these that King Solomon of Israel sinned? There wasn’t a king like him among all nations. Elohim loved him, and Elohim made him king of all Israel. But his non-Israelite wives led him to sin.
