2 Chronicles 30:7-9

New American Standard Bible

^7 (A)Do not be like your fathers and your brothers, who were untrue to the Lord God of their fathers, so that ^(B)He made them an object of horror, just as you see. ⁸ Now do not ^(C)stiffen your neck like your fathers, but ^[a]yield to the Lord and enter His sanctuary which He has consecrated forever, and serve the Lord your God, ^(D)that His burning anger may turn away from you. ⁹ For ^(E)if you return to the Lord, your brothers and your sons will find compassion in the presence of those who led them captive, and will return to this land. ^(F)For the Lord your God is gracious and compassionate, and will not turn His face away from you if you return to Him.”
