TSK · Ezra 9:12

After all, Abraham will surely become a great and powerful nation, and all the nations on the earth may receive blessing through him.

Be careful not to make a covenant with the inhabitants of the land, for when they prostitute themselves to their gods and sacrifice to their gods, and someone invites you, you will eat from his sacrifice;

You must not intermarry with them. Do not give your daughters to their sons or take their daughters for your sons,

You must not hate an Edomite, for he is your relative; you must not hate an Egyptian, for you lived as a foreigner in his land.

But if you ever turn away and make alliances with these nations that remain near you, and intermarry with them and establish friendly relations with them,

the prophet Jehu son of Hanani confronted him; he said to King Jehoshaphat,“Is it right to help the wicked and be an ally of those who oppose the LORD? Because you have done this the LORD is angry with you!

Praise the LORD! How blessed is the one who obeys the LORD, who takes great delight in keeping his commands.

The righteous person behaves in integrity; blessed are his children after him.

If anyone comes to you and does not bring this teaching, do not receive him into your house and do not give him any greeting,
