Joel 2:28-32
International Children’s Bible
28 “After this,
I will give my Spirit freely to all kinds of people.
Your sons and daughters will prophesy.
Your old men will dream dreams.
Your young men will see visions.
29 At that time I will give my Spirit
even to servants, both men and women.
30 I will show miracles
in the sky and on the earth:
blood, fire and thick smoke.
31 The sun will become dark.
The moon will become red as blood.
And then the Lord’s overwhelming and terrible day of judging will come.
32 Then anyone who asks the Lord for help
will be saved.
Even on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
there will be people who will be saved.
This will happen just as the Lord has said.
Those left alive after the day of punishment
are the people whom the Lord called.
