1 Esdras 9:13

13 and with them the rulers and judges of every place, till we turn away the wrath of the Lord from us for this matter."

1 Esdras 9:13 In-Context

11 But forasmuch as the people are many, and it is foul weather so that we cannot stand outside, and this is not the work of a day or two, seeing our sin in these things is spread far,

12 therefore let the rulers of the multitude stay, and let all those of our habitations who have foreign wives come at the time appointed,

13 and with them the rulers and judges of every place, till we turn away the wrath of the Lord from us for this matter."

14 Then Jonathan the son of Asahel and Jahaziah the son of Tikvah accordingly took this matter upon them; and Meshullam and Levi and Shabbethai helped them.

15 And those who were of the captivity did according to all these things.
