Joel 2:11-13
New American Bible (Revised Edition)
11 The Lord raises his voice
at the head of his army;
How immense is his host!
How numerous those who carry out his command!
How great is the day of the Lord!
Utterly terrifying! Who can survive it?(A)
Return to the Lord
12 Yet even now—oracle of the Lord—
return to me with your whole heart,
with fasting, weeping, and mourning.
13 Rend your hearts, not your garments,
and return to the Lord, your God,
For he is gracious and merciful,
slow to anger, abounding in steadfast love,
and relenting in punishment.(B)
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)
Rend Your Heart
