Da dette var gjort, kom fyrstene til meg og sa: «Israels folk, prestene og levittene har ikke skilt seg fra folkene i landene, men praktiserer de samme avskyelige skikkene som kanaaneerne, hetittene, perisittene, jebusittene, ammonittene, moabittene, egypterne og amorittene.»
Now when these things were done, the princes came to me, saying, The people of Israel, and the priests, and the Levites, have not separated themselves from the people of the lands, doing according to their abominations, even of the Canaanites, the Hittites, the Perizzites, the Jebusites, the Ammonites, the Moabites, the Egyptians, and the Amorites.
