Joel 2:21-32

21Do not be afraid, land of Judah; be glad and rejoice. Surely the LORD has done great things!

22Do not be afraid, you wild animals, for the pastures in the wilderness are becoming green. The trees are bearing their fruit; the fig tree and the vine yield their riches.

23Be glad, people of Zion, rejoice in the LORD your God, for he has given you the autumn rains because he is faithful. He sends you abundant showers, both autumn and spring rains, as before.

24The threshing floors will be filled with grain; the vats will overflow with new wine and oil.

25“I will repay you for the years the locusts have eaten— the great locust and the young locust, the other locusts and the locust swarm The precise meaning of the four Hebrew words used here for locusts is uncertain. — my great army that I sent among you.

26You will have plenty to eat, until you are full, and you will praise the name of the LORD your God, who has worked wonders for you; never again will my people be shamed.

27Then you will know that I am in Israel, that I am the LORD your God, and that there is no other; never again will my people be shamed.

The Day of the LORD 28“And afterward, I will pour out my Spirit on all people. Your sons and daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, your young men will see visions.

29Even on my servants, both men and women, I will pour out my Spirit in those days.

30I will show wonders in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and billows of smoke.

31The sun will be turned to darkness and the moon to blood before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD . 32And everyone who calls on the name of the LORD will be saved; for on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem there will be deliverance, as the LORD has said, even among the survivors whom the LORD calls. In Hebrew texts 2:28-32 is numbered 3:1-5.
