English Standard Version
18 All this is from God, (A)who through Christ reconciled us to himself and gave us (B)the ministry of reconciliation; 19 that is, in Christ God was reconciling[a] the world to himself, (C)not counting their trespasses against them, and entrusting to us (D)the message of reconciliation. 20 Therefore, (E)we are ambassadors for Christ, (F)God making his appeal through us. We implore you on behalf of Christ, be reconciled to God. 21 (G)For our sake he made him to be sin (H)who knew no sin, so that in him we might become (I)the righteousness of God.
6 (J)Working together with him, then, (K)we appeal to you (L)not to receive the grace of God in vain.

2 Samuel 20:18-22
English Standard Version
18 Then she said, “They used to say in former times, ‘Let them but ask counsel at (A)Abel,’ and so they settled a matter. 19 I am one of those who are peaceable and faithful in Israel. You seek to destroy a city that is a mother in Israel. Why will you (B)swallow up (C)the heritage of the Lord?” 20 Joab answered, “Far be it from me, far be it, that I should (D)swallow up or destroy! 21 That is not true. But a man of (E)the hill country of Ephraim, called Sheba the son of Bichri, has lifted up his hand against King David. Give up him alone, and I will withdraw from the city.” And the woman said to Joab, “Behold, his head shall be thrown to you over the wall.” 22 Then the woman went to all the people (F)in her wisdom. And they cut off the head of Sheba the son of Bichri and threw it out to Joab. So he blew the trumpet, and they dispersed from the city, (G)every man to his home. And Joab returned to Jerusalem to the king.
