2 Mambo Ya Nyakati 30:9

Kama mkimrudia Bwana ndipo wale ndugu zenu waliotekwa pamoja na watoto wenu watakapoonewa huruma na wale waliowateka na kuwaachia warudi katika nchi hii, kwa kuwa Bwana Mungu wenu ni mwenye neema na huruma, hatageuzia uso wake mbali nanyi kama ninyi mkimrudia yeye.”

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.
