Joel 2:21 - 2:32



21
Do not fear, O land, rejoice and be glad,
For Yahweh has done great things.

22
Do not fear, beasts of the field,
For the pastures of the wilderness have turned green,
For the tree has borne its fruit;
The fig tree and the vine have yielded their full force.

23
So rejoice, O sons of Zion,
And be glad in Yahweh your God,
For He has given you the early rain in righteousness.
And He has poured down for you the rain,
The early and late rains as before.

24
The threshing floors will be full of grain,
And the vats will overflow with the new wine and oil.

25
“Then I will pay back to you in full for the years
That the swarming locust has consumed,
The creeping locust, the stripping locust, and the gnawing locust,
My great military force which I sent among you.

26
And you will have plenty to consume and be satisfied
And praise the name of Yahweh your God,
Who has dealt wondrously with you;
Then My people will never be put to shame.

27
Thus you will know that I am in the midst of Israel,
And that I am Yahweh your God,
And there is no other;
And My people will never be put to shame.

Yahweh Will Pour Out His Spirit

28
“And it will be afterwards
That I will pour out My Spirit on all mankind;
And your sons and your daughters shall prophesy;
Your old men will dream dreams;
Your young men will see visions.

29
Even on the male slaves and female slaves
I will in those days pour out My Spirit.

Deliverance in the Day of Yahweh

30
And I will put wonders in the sky and on the earth,
Blood, fire, and columns of smoke.

31
The sun will be turned into darkness
And the moon into blood
Before the great and awesome day of Yahweh comes.

32
And it will be that everyone who calls on the name of Yahweh
Will be delivered;
For on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
There will be those who escape,
As Yahweh has said,
Even among the survivors whom Yahweh calls.
