Nehemiah 13:26-28

Common English Bible

²⁶ Didn’t Israel’s King Solomon sin on account of such women? Among the many nations there was no king like him. He was well loved by his God, and God made him king over all Israel. Yet foreign wives led even him into sin! ²⁷ Should we then listen to you and do all this great evil, acting unfaithfully toward our God by marrying foreign women?”

²⁸ Now one of the sons of Joiada son of the high priest Eliashib was a son-in-law of Sanballat the Horonite. So I chased him away from me.
