2 Chronicles 11:16

And after them out of all the tribes of Israel
Besides the priests and Levites, and after their example, many of the common people, out of all the ten tribes:

to seek his face and favour, where he was to be found; to worship him according to his revealed will, and to receive doctrine or instruction from him, as the Targum:

came to Jerusalem to sacrifice to the Lord God of their fathers;
to sacrifice where only sacrifices were to be offered up, and by the priests of the Lord, who were gone thither, and to their fathers' God, whom the ten tribes had revolted from.
