nkjv - Joel:2:12-17

nkjv@Joel:2:12 @ "Now, therefore," says the LORD, "Turn to Me with all your heart, With fasting, with weeping, and with mourning."

nkjv@Joel:2:13 @ So rend your heart, and not your garments; Return to the LORD your God, For He is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and of great kindness; And He relents from doing harm.

nkjv@Joel:2:14 @ Who knows if He will turn and relent, And leave a blessing behind Him-- A grain offering and a drink offering For the LORD your God?

nkjv@Joel:2:15 @ Blow the trumpet in Zion, Consecrate a fast, Call a sacred assembly;

nkjv@Joel:2:16 @ Gather the people, Sanctify the congregation, Assemble the elders, Gather the children and nursing babes; Let the bridegroom go out from his chamber, And the bride from her dressing room.

nkjv@Joel:2:17 @ Let the priests, who minister to the LORD, Weep between the porch and the altar; Let them say, "Spare Your people, O LORD, And do not give Your heritage to reproach, That the nations should rule over them. Why should they say among the peoples, "Where is their God?"'
