2 Chronicles 30:6-8
New American Standard Bible 1995
6 (A)The [a]couriers went throughout all Israel and Judah with the letters from the hand of the king and his princes, even according to the command of the king, saying, “O sons of Israel, return to the Lord God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, that He may return to those of you who escaped and are left from (B)the [b]hand of the kings of Assyria. 7 (C)Do not be like your fathers and your brothers, who were unfaithful to the Lord God of their fathers, so that (D)He made them a horror, as you see. 8 Now do not (E)stiffen your neck like your fathers, but [c]yield to the Lord and enter His sanctuary which He has consecrated forever, and serve the Lord your God, (F)that His burning anger may turn away from you.

New International Version
6 At the king’s command, couriers went throughout Israel and Judah with letters from the king and from his officials, which read:
“People of Israel, return to the Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Israel, that he may return to you who are left, who have escaped from the hand of the kings of Assyria. 7 Do not be like your parents(A) and your fellow Israelites, who were unfaithful(B) to the Lord, the God of their ancestors, so that he made them an object of horror,(C) as you see. 8 Do not be stiff-necked,(D) as your ancestors were; submit to the Lord. Come to his sanctuary, which he has consecrated forever. Serve the Lord your God, so that his fierce anger(E) will turn away from you.
