Joel 2:11-13
Contemporary English Version
11 (A) The Lord God leads this army
of countless troops,
and they obey his commands.
The day of his judgment
is so terrible
that no one can stand it.
The Lord's Invitation
12 The Lord said:
It isn't too late.
You can still return to me
with all your heart.
Start crying and mourning!
Go without eating.
13 Don't rip your clothes
to show your sorrow.
Instead, turn back to me
with broken hearts.
I am merciful, kind, and caring.
I don't easily lose my temper,
and I don't like to punish.
Joel 2:11-13
New International Version
11 The Lord(A) thunders(B)
at the head of his army;(C)
his forces are beyond number,
and mighty is the army that obeys his command.
The day of the Lord is great;(D)
it is dreadful.
Who can endure it?(E)
