^{12 Ref} "Yet even now," says Yahweh, "turn to me with all your heart, And with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning."

^{13 Ref} Tear your heart, and not your garments, And turn to Yahweh, your God; For he is gracious and merciful, Slow to anger, and abundant in loving kindness, And relents from sending calamity.

^{14 Ref} Who knows? He may turn and relent, And leave a blessing behind him, Even a meal offering and a drink offering to Yahweh, your God.
