KJV - Ezra 9:11
Which thou hast commanded by thy servants the prophets, saying, The land, unto which ye go to possess it, is an unclean land with the filthiness of the people of the lands, with their abominations, which have filled it from one end to another with their uncleanness.
Which you told your prophets to say, "The land you're going to take control of is very dirty because of the bad habits of its people. These habits have made the land unclean all over."
