Joel 2:12-17

12Yet even nowH6258, saith Jehovah, turnH7725 to me with all your heartH3824, and with fastingH6685, and with weepingH1065, and with mourningH4553;

13and rend your heartH3824, and not your garmentsH899, and turnH7725 unto Jehovah your 1GodH430: for he is graciousH2587 and merciful, slow to angerH639, and of greatH7227 loving-kindness, and repenteth him of the evilH7451.

14Who knoweth? He might returnH7725 and repent, and leaveH7604 a blessingH1293 behind him, an oblation and a drink-offering for Jehovah your 2GodH430?

15BlowH8628 the trumpetH7782 in ZionH6726, hallow a fastH6685, proclaimH7121 a solemnH6116 assemblyH6116;

16gatherH6908 the peopleH5971, hallow the congregation, assemble the eldersH2205, gatherH6908 the childrenH5768, and those that suckH3243 the breastsH7699; let the bridegroom goH3318 forthH3318 from his chamberH2315, and the brideH3618 from her closet.

17Let the priestsH3548, the ministers of Jehovah, weepH1058 between the porchH197 and the altarH4196, and let them sayH559, Spare, O Jehovah, thy peopleH5971, and giveH5414 not thine inheritanceH5159 to reproachH2781, that they should be a byword of the nationsH1471. Wherefore should they sayH559 among the peoplesH5971, WhereH346 is their 3GodH430?
