Joel 2 Contemporary English Version (CEV)
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.
14 I am the Lord your God.
Perhaps I will change my mind
and treat you with mercy.
Then you will be blessed
with enough grain and wine
for offering sacrifices to me.
