Deuteronomy 7:3Catholic Public Domain VersionAnd you shall not associate with them in marriage. You shall not give your daughter to his son, nor accept his daughter for your son. See the chapter |
These were of the nations about whom the Lord said to the sons of Israel: "You shall not enter to them, and none of them shall enter to anyone of yours. For they will most certainly turn aside your hearts, so that you follow their gods." And yet, to these Solomon was joined with a greatly enflamed love.
Now therefore, you should not give your daughters to their sons, nor should you receive their daughters for your sons. And you should not seek their peace, nor their prosperity, even forever. So shall you be strengthened, and so shall you eat the good things of the land, and have your sons as your heirs, even for all time.
