Joel 2:13
Douay-Rheims
And rend your hearts, and not your garments, and turn to the Lord your God: for he is gracious and merciful, patient and rich in mercy, and ready to repent of the evil.
Rashi
and not your garments—for I do not pay heed to the rending of your garments. Another explanation: Rend your hearts and you will not need to rend your garments because of mourning.
and He repents of the evil—I.e., He turns to another thought.
