“And that we would not give our daughters unto the people of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons:”
“and that we would not give our daughters unto the peoples of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons; ”
“and that we would not give our daughters to the peoples of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons;”
““We will not give our daughters in marriage to the neighboring peoples, and we will not take their daughters in marriage for our sons.”
“And that we would not give our daughters to the people of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons.”
“And that we would not give our daughters to the peoples of the lands, or take their daughters for our sons;”
“And that we would not give our daughters unto the people of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons:”

And the rest of the people were the priests, the Levites, the gatekeepers, and the singers, the temple servants, and all who had separated themselves, from the peoples of the lands, to the law of God, with their wives, their sons, and their daughters.
All who were able to understand, pledged on behalf of their brothers, with their nobles, and they came forward to promise and to swear that they would walk in the law of God, which he had given to the hand of Moses, the servant of God, that they would do and keep all the commandments of the Lord our God, and his judgments and his ceremonies,
and that we would not give our daughters to the people of the land, and that we would not accept their daughters for our sons,
also that, if the people of the land carry in goods for sale or any useful things, so that they might sell them on the day of the Sabbath, that we would not buy them on the Sabbath, nor on a sanctified day, and that we would release the seventh year and the collection of debt from every hand.
And we established precepts over ourselves, so that we would give one third part of a shekel each year for the work of the house of our God,
for the bread of the presence, and for the continual sacrifice, and for a continual holocaust on the Sabbaths, on the new moons, on the solemnities, and for the holy things, and for the sin offering, so that atonement would be made for Israel, and for every use within the house of our God.
