KJV - Ezra 9:2
For they have taken of their daughters for themselves, and for their sons: so that the holy seed have mingled themselves with the people of those lands: yea, the hand of the princes and rulers hath been chief in this trespass.
For they married their daughters to others and gave their sons away too. This mixed the special people with those from other lands. The leaders and rulers were mostly responsible for this wrongdoing.
