Joel 2:11 in Context — Joel 2
9 Ils se répandent dans la ville, Courent sur les murailles, Montent sur les maisons, Entrent par les fenêtres comme un voleur.
10 Devant eux la terre tremble, Les cieux sont ébranlés, Le soleil et la lune s’obscurcissent, Et les étoiles retirent leur éclat.
11 L’Éternel fait entendre sa voix devant son armée; Car son camp est immense, Et l’exécuteur de sa parole est puissant; Car le jour de l’Éternel est grand, il est terrible: Qui pourra le soutenir?
12 Maintenant encore, dit l’Éternel, Revenez à moi de tout votre cœur, Avec des jeûnes, avec des pleurs et des lamentations!
13 Déchirez vos cœurs et non vos vêtements, Et revenez à l’Éternel, votre Dieu; Car il est compatissant et miséricordieux, Lent à la colère et riche en bonté, Et il se repent des maux qu’il envoie.
