12 “Yet even now,” declares the Lord,
(A)Return to Me with all your heart,
And with (B)fasting, weeping, and mourning;
13 And (C)tear your heart and not merely (D)your garments.”
Now return to the Lord your God,
For He is (E)gracious and compassionate,
Slow to anger, abounding in mercy
And (F)relenting of catastrophe.
14 Who knows, (G)He might turn and relent,
And leave a (H)blessing behind Him,
Resulting in (I)a grain offering and a drink offering
For the Lord your God.
