uW Translation Notes:

Note 1 topic: figures-of-speech / metaphor

וְ⁠קִרְע֤וּ לְבַבְ⁠כֶם֙ וְ⁠אַל־בִּגְדֵי⁠כֶ֔ם

and,rend hearts_of,your_all's and,not garments_of,your_all's

Joel is speaking as if people could literally tear their hearts. He is using the contrast with tearing garments, which was a literal sign of mourning, to emphasize internal repentance. If it would be clearer in your language, you could state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [And do not only tear your garments; repent in your hearts]

Note 2 topic: figures-of-speech / quotations

וְ⁠קִרְע֤וּ לְבַבְ⁠כֶם֙ וְ⁠אַל־בִּגְדֵי⁠כֶ֔ם וְ⁠שׁ֖וּבוּ אֶל־יְהוָ֣ה אֱלֹֽהֵי⁠כֶ֑ם

and,rend hearts_of,your_all's and,not garments_of,your_all's and,return to/towards YHWH God_of,your_all's

Some versions end the quotation that begins in verse 12 after this sentence instead of at the end of verse 12. If a translation of the Bible exists in your region, you may wish to follow the quotation boundaries that it has. If a translation of the Bible does not exist in your region, you may wish to use the same boundaries as the ULT.

Note 3 topic: figures-of-speech / idiom

אֶ֤רֶךְ אַפַּ֨יִם֙

slow_of anger

Here, long of nostrils is an idiom meaning that the person is slow to get angry. If this phrase does not have that meaning in your language, use an idiom from your language that does have that meaning or state the meaning plainly. Alternate translation: [long-tempered] or [slow to become angry]

Note 4 topic: figures-of-speech / abstractnouns

וְ⁠רַב־חֶ֔סֶד

and,abounding_of steadfast_love

If your language does not use an abstract noun for the idea of kindness, you could express the same idea in another way. Alternate translation: [and very kind]

TSN Tyndale Study Notes:

2:13 One means of showing grief in the ancient world was to tear one’s clothing (Gen 37:34; 2 Sam 3:31; 2 Kgs 19:1).
• tear your hearts: In Hebrew, the heart is the center of thought, faith, and will. God’s people were to go beyond external demonstrations of repentance to repent inwardly—to change their orientation, priorities, and attitudes. This could only happen if they would return to the Lord.
• for he is merciful and compassionate . . . and filled with unfailing love: The people’s only hope was in the merciful character of the Lord (see also Exod 34:6-7; Num 14:18; Neh 9:17; Pss 86:15; 103:8; 145:8; Jon 4:2). God’s desire is not to punish, but to forgive and restore his people.
