Joel 2:11-13
Legacy Standard Bible

11 But Yahweh (A)gives forth His voice before (B)His military force;
Surely His camp is very numerous,
For (C)mighty is he who does His word.
The (D)day of Yahweh is indeed great and very awesome,
And (E)who can endure it?

Return to Yahweh

12 “Yet even now,” declares Yahweh,
“(F)Return to Me with all your heart
And with (G)fasting, weeping, and [a]wailing;
13 And (H)tear your heart and not (I)your garments.”
Now return to Yahweh your God,
For He is (J)gracious and compassionate,
Slow to anger, abounding in lovingkindness,
And (K)relenting concerning evil.

King James Version

11 And the Lord shall utter his voice before his army: for his camp is very great: for he is strong that executeth his word: for the day of the Lord is great and very terrible; and who can abide it?

12 Therefore also now, saith the Lord, turn ye even to me with all your heart, and with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:

13 And rend your heart, and not your garments, and turn unto the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, slow to anger, and of great kindness, and repenteth him of the evil.
