20 So the merchants and sellers of all kind of ware lodged without Jerusalem once or twice.

21 Then I testified against them, and said unto them, Why lodge ye about the wall? if ye do so again, I will lay hands on you. From that time forth came they no more on the sabbath.

24 And their children spake half in the speech of Ashdod, and could not speak in the Jews' language, but according to the language of each people.
