Joel 2:11-15
11The LORDH3068 raisesH5414 His voiceH6963 in the presenceH6440 of His armyH2428. IndeedH3588, His campH4264 is veryH3966 largeH7227, forH3588 mightyH6099 are those who obeyH6213 His commandH1697. ForH3588 the DayH3117 of the LORDH3068 is greatH1419 and veryH3966 dreadfulH3372. WhoH4310 can endure itH3557?
12“Yet evenH1571 nowH6258,”declaresH5002 the LORDH3068,“returnH7725 to MeH5704 with allH3605 your heartH3824,with fastingH6685, weepingH1065, and mourningH4553.”
13So rendH7167 your heartsH3824 and notH408 your garmentsH899,and returnH7725 toH413 the LORDH3068 your GodH430.ForH3588 HeH1931 is graciousH2587 and compassionateH7349,slowH750 to angerH639, aboundingH7227 in loving devotionH2617.1And He relentsH5162 fromH5921 sending disasterH7451.14WhoH4310 knowsH3045? He may turnH7725 and relentH5162and leaveH7604 a blessingH1293 behind HimH310—grainH4503 and drink offeringsH5262for the LORDH3068 your GodH430.
