Nehemiah 13:27-29

Good News Translation

²⁷ Are we then to follow your example and disobey our God by marrying foreign women?”

^28 (A)Joiada was the son of Eliashib the High Priest, but one of Joiada's sons married the daughter of Sanballat, from the town of Beth Horon, so I made Joiada leave Jerusalem.

²⁹ Remember, God, how those people defiled both the office of priest and the covenant you made with the priests and the Levites.
