*
So the posts went with the letters from the king and his princes throughout all Israel and Judah ,
and according to the commandment of the king ,
saying ,
Ye children of Israel Yisra #
el #,
turn again unto the LORD God of Abraham ,
Isaac ,
and Israel Yisra #
el #,
and he will return to the remnant of you ,
that are escaped out of the hand of the kings of Assyria .
*
And be not ye like your fathers ,
and like your brethren ,
which trespassed against the LORD God of their fathers ,
who therefore gave them up to desolation ,
as ye see .
*
Now be ye not stiffnecked ,
as your fathers were ,
but yield yourselves unto the LORD ,
and enter into his sanctuary ,
which he hath sanctified for ever :
and serve the LORD your God ,
that the fierceness of his wrath may turn away from you .
*
For if ye turn again unto the LORD ,
your brethren and your children shall find compassion before them that lead them captive ,
so that they shall come again into this land :
for the LORD your God is gracious and merciful ,
and will not turn away his face from you ,
if ye return unto him .

So the posts passed from city to city through the country of Ephraim and Manasseh even unto Zebulun :
but they laughed them to scorn ,
and mocked them .
*
Nevertheless divers of Asher and Manasseh and of Zebulun humbled themselves ,
and came to Jerusalem .
*
Also in Judah the hand of God was to give them one heart to do the commandment of the king and of the princes ,
by the word of the LORD .
