A Call to Repentance

12 “But even now,” says the Lord,
    “repent sincerely and return to me
    with fasting and weeping and mourning.
13 Let your broken heart show your sorrow;
    tearing your clothes is not enough.”

Come back to the Lord your God.
    He is kind and full of mercy;
    he is patient and keeps his promise;
    he is always ready to forgive and not punish.
14 Perhaps the Lord your God will change his mind
    and bless you with abundant crops.
Then you can offer him grain and wine.
