Joel 2:25-32

25 I will restore ^{▼▼Or pay back} to you the years
that ^bthe swarming locust has eaten,
^cthe hopper, ^dthe destroyer, and ^ethe cutter,
^fmy great army, which I sent among you.
26 ^g“You shall eat in plenty and be satisfied,
and praise the name of the Lord your God,
who has dealt wondrously with you.
And my people ^hshall never again be put to shame.
27 ⁱYou shall know that I am ^jin the midst of Israel,
and that ^kI am the Lord your God ^land there is none else.
And my people ^mshall never again be put to shame.

The Lord Will Pour Out His Spirit

28 ^{▼▼Ch 3:1 in Hebrew} ^o“And it shall come to pass afterward,
that ^pI will pour out my Spirit on all flesh;
^qyour sons and ^ryour daughters shall prophesy,
your old men shall dream dreams,
and your young men shall see visions.
29 ^sEven on the male and female servants
in those days I will pour out my Spirit.
30 “And I will show ^twonders in the heavens and ^uon the earth, blood and fire and columns of smoke. 31 ^vThe sun shall be turned to darkness, ^wand the moon to blood, ^xbefore the great and awesome day of the Lord comes. 32 And it shall come to pass that ^yeveryone who calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved. ^zFor in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there shall be those who escape, as the Lord has said, and among ^aathe survivors shall be those whom the Lord calls.
