12 “But if YOU should turn back at all+ and YOU do cleave to what is left of these nations,+ these that remain with YOU, and YOU do form marriage alliances+ with them and go in among them, and they among YOU,
2 from the nations of whom Jehovah had said to the sons of Israel: “YOU must not go in among them,+ and they themselves should not come in among YOU; truly they will incline YOUR heart to follow their gods.”+ It was to them that Solʹo·mon clung+ to love [them].
2 For they have accepted some of their daughters for themselves and for their sons;+ and they, the holy seed,+ have become mingled+ with the peoples of the lands, and the hand+ of the princes and the deputy rulers has proved to be foremost+ in this unfaithfulness.”
