Joel 2:11-13

New International Reader's Version

“Return to me with all your heart.
    There is still time.
Do not eat any food.
    Weep and mourn.”

¹³ Don’t just tear your clothes to show how sad you are.
    Let your hearts be broken.
Return to the Lord your God.
    He is gracious.
    He is tender and kind.
He is slow to get angry.
    He is full of love.
He won’t bring his judgment.
    He won’t destroy you.
