Joel 2:14

A Call To Repentance

¹³ Tear your hearts,
not just your clothes,
and return to the Lord your God.
For He is gracious and compassionate,
slow to anger, rich in faithful love,
and He relents from sending disaster.
¹⁴ Who knows? He may turn and relent
and leave a blessing behind Him,
so you can offer grain and wine
to the Lord your God. ¹⁵ Blow the horn in Zion!
Announce a sacred fast;
proclaim an assembly.
