That is why the Lord says,
“Turn to me now, while there is time.
Give me your hearts.
Come with fasting, weeping, and mourning.
Don’t tear your clothing in your grief,
but tear your hearts instead.”
Return to the Lord your God,

slow to get angry and filled with unfailing love.
He is eager to relent and not punish.

Therefore also now, saith the Lord,
Turn ye even to me with all your heart,
And with fasting, and with weeping, and with mourning:

Slow to anger, and of great kindness,
And repenteth him of the evil.
