Parallel
Joel 2:13
Swete's Septuagint · Berean Standard Bible
καὶ διαρήξατε τὰς καρδίας ὑμῶν καὶ μὴ τὰ ἱμάτια ὑμῶν, καὶ ἐπιστράφητε πρὸς Κύριον τὸν θεὸν ὑμῶν, ὅτι ἐλεήμαων καὶ οἰκτίρμων ἐστίν, μακρόθυμος καὶ πολυέλεος καὶ μετανοῶν ἐπὶ ταῖς κακίαις.
So rend your hearts and not your garments, and return to the LORD your God. For He is gracious and compassionate, slow to anger, abounding in loving devotion (note: Forms of the Hebrew chesed are translated here and in most cases throughout the Scriptures as loving devotion; the range of meaning includes love, goodness, kindness, faithfulness, and mercy, as well as loyalty to a covenant.). And He relents from sending disaster.
