Nehemiah 13:25-27

Living Bible

²⁵ So I confronted these parents and cursed them and punched a few of them and knocked them around and pulled out their hair; and they vowed before God that they would not let their children intermarry with non-Jews.

²⁶ “Wasn’t this exactly King Solomon’s problem?” I demanded. “There was no king who could compare with him, and God loved him and made him the king over all Israel; but even so he was led into idolatry by foreign women. ²⁷ Do you think that we will let you get away with this sinful deed?”
