Tobit 4:12
Beware of all whoredom, my son, and chiefly take a wife of the seed of your forefathers, and do not take an alien* woman to wife, which is not of your father's tribe: for we are the children of the prophets, Noe, Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob: remember, my son, that our forefathers from the beginning, all married wives of their own kindred, and were blessed in their children, and their seed shall inherit the land.
Attende tibi, fili, ab omni fornicatione. Uxorem primum accipe ex semine parentum tuorum et noli sumere uxorem alienam*, quae non est ex tribu patris tui, quoniam filii prophetarum sumus: Noe et Abraham et Isaac et Iacob patres nostri a saeculo. Rememorare, fili, quoniam hi omnes acceperunt uxores ex semine patrum suorum et benedicti sunt in filiis suis, et semen illorum possidebit hereditatem terrae.
—*alien: racial foreigner.
