2 Chronicles 30:2-15

2For the kingH4428 had taken counselH3289, and his princesH8269, and all the congregationH6951 in JerusalemH3389, to keepH6213 the passoverH6453 in the secondH8145 monthH2320. 3For they couldH3201 not keepH6213 it at that timeH6256, because the priestsH3548 had not sanctifiedH6942 themselves sufficientlyH1767H4078, neither had the peopleH5971 gathered themselves togetherH622 to JerusalemH3389. 4And the thingH1697 pleasedH5869H3474 the kingH4428 and all the congregationH6951.1 5So they establishedH5975 a decreeH1697 to make proclamationH6963H5674 throughout all IsraelH3478, from Beer–shebaH884 even to DanH1835, that they should comeH935 to keepH6213 the passoverH6453 unto YhwhH3068 GodH430 of IsraelH3478 at JerusalemH3389: for they had not doneH6213 it of a longH7230 time in such sort as it was writtenH3789. 6So the postsH7323 wentH3212 with the lettersH107 fromH3027 the kingH4428 and his princesH8269 throughout all IsraelH3478 and JudahH3063, and according to the commandmentH4687 of the kingH4428, sayingH559, Ye childrenH1121 of IsraelH3478, turn againH7725 unto YhwhH3068 GodH430 of AbrahamH85, IsaacH3327, and IsraelH3478, and he will returnH7725 to the remnantH7604 of you, that are escapedH6413 out of the handH3709 of the kingsH4428 of AssyriaH804.2 7And be not ye like your fathersH1, and like your brethrenH251, which trespassedH4603 against YhwhH3068 GodH430 of their fathersH1, who therefore gave them upH5414 to desolationH8047, as ye seeH7200. 8Now be ye not stiffneckedH6203H7185, as your fathersH1 were, but yieldH5414 yourselvesH3027 unto YhwhH3068, and enterH935 into his sanctuaryH4720, which he hath sanctifiedH6942 for everH5769: and serveH5647 YhwhH3068 your GodH430, that the fiercenessH2740 of his wrathH639 may turn awayH7725 from you.34 9For if ye turn againH7725 unto YhwhH3068, your brethrenH251 and your childrenH1121 shall find compassionH7356 beforeH6440 them that lead them captiveH7617, so that they shall come againH7725 into this landH776: for YhwhH3068 your GodH430 is graciousH2587 and mercifulH7349, and will not turn awayH5493 his faceH6440 from you, if ye returnH7725 unto him. 10So the postsH7323 passedH5674 from cityH5892 to cityH5892 through the countryH776 of EphraimH669 and ManassehH4519 even unto ZebulunH2074: but they laughed them to scornH7832, and mockedH3932 them. 11Nevertheless diversH582 of AsherH836 and ManassehH4519 and of ZebulunH2074 humbledH3665 themselves, and cameH935 to JerusalemH3389. 12Also in JudahH3063 the handH3027 of GodH430 was to giveH5414 them oneH259 heartH3820 to doH6213 the commandmentH4687 of the kingH4428 and of the princesH8269, by the wordH1697 of YhwhH3068.

13And there assembledH622 at JerusalemH3389 muchH7227 peopleH5971 to keepH6213 the feastH2282 of unleavened breadH4682 in the secondH8145 monthH2320, a veryH3966 greatH7230 congregationH6951. 14And they aroseH6965 and took awayH5493 the altarsH4196 that were in JerusalemH3389, and all the altars for incenseH6999 took they awayH5493, and castH7993 them into the brookH5158 KidronH6939. 15Then they killedH7819 the passoverH6453 on the fourteenthH6240H702 day of the secondH8145 monthH2320: and the priestsH3548 and the LevitesH3881 were ashamedH3637, and sanctifiedH6942 themselves, and brought inH935 the burnt offeringsH5930 into the houseH1004 of YhwhH3068.
