Joel 2:12-14
Lexham English Bible
A Call to Repentance
12 “And even now,” declares[a] Yahweh,
“return to me with all your heart,
with fasting, and weeping, and wailing.”
13 Rend your hearts[b] and not your garments,
and return to Yahweh your God,
because he is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger[c] and great in loyal love,
and relenting from harm.
14 Who knows whether he will turn and relent,
and leave a blessing behind him,
an offering and a libation,
for Yahweh your God?
