Thus cleansed I them from all strangers, and appointed wards for the priests and for the Levites, every one in his work;
But as for us, the LORD is our God, and we have not forsaken him; and we have priests ministering unto the LORD, the sons of Aaron, and the Levites in their work:
and that we would not give our daughters unto the peoples of the land, nor take their daughters for our sons:
And the priests and the Levites purified themselves; and they purified the people, and the gates, and the wall.
