God’s Response to His People
18 Then the Lord became jealous for His land(A) and spared His people.(B) 19 The Lord answered His people:
Look, I am about to send you
grain, new wine, and olive oil.(C)
You will be satiated with them,
and I will no longer make you
a disgrace among the nations.(D)
20 I will drive the northerner far from you(E)
and banish him to a dry and desolate land,
his front ranks into the Dead Sea,(F)
and his rear guard into the Mediterranean Sea.(G)
His stench will rise;
yes, his rotten smell will rise,(H)
for he has done catastrophic things.
21 Don’t be afraid, land;(I)
rejoice and be glad,
for the Lord has done great things.(J)
22 Don’t be afraid, wild animals,
for the wilderness pastures have turned green,(K)
the trees bear their fruit,
and the fig tree and grapevine yield their riches.
23 Children of Zion,(L) rejoice and be glad
in the Lord your God,(M)
because He gives you the autumn rain
for your vindication.[a](N)
He sends showers for you,
both autumn and spring rain(O) as before.
24 The threshing floors will be full of grain,(P)
and the vats will overflow
with new wine and olive oil.
25 I will repay you for the years
that the swarming locust ate,(Q)
the young locust, the destroying locust,
and the devouring locust—
My great army that I sent against you.
26 You will have plenty to eat and be satisfied.(R)
You will praise the name of Yahweh your God,(S)
who has dealt wondrously with you.(T)
My people will never again be put to shame.(U)
27 You will know that I am present in Israel(V)
and that I am Yahweh your God,
and there is no other.(W)
My people will never again be put to shame.(X)
God’s Promise of His Spirit
28 [b] After this(Y)
I will pour out My Spirit(Z) on all humanity;(AA)
then your sons and your daughters will prophesy,
your old men will have dreams,
and your young men will see visions.
29 I will even pour out My Spirit
on the male and female slaves in those days.(AB)
30 I will display wonders
in the heavens and on the earth:(AC)
blood, fire, and columns of smoke.
31 The sun will be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood(AD)
before the great and awe-inspiring Day of the Lord comes.(AE)
32 Then everyone who calls
on the name of Yahweh will be saved,(AF)
for there will be an escape
for those on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,
as the Lord promised,(AG)
among the survivors the Lord calls.

The Lord’s Answer
19 The Lord replied[a] to them:
“I am sending you grain, new wine(C) and olive oil,(D)
enough to satisfy you fully;(E)
never again will I make you
an object of scorn(F) to the nations.
20 “I will drive the northern horde(G) far from you,
pushing it into a parched and barren land;
its eastern ranks will drown in the Dead Sea
and its western ranks in the Mediterranean Sea.
And its stench(H) will go up;
its smell will rise.”
Surely he has done great things!
21 Do not be afraid,(I) land of Judah;
be glad and rejoice.(J)
Surely the Lord has done great things!(K)
22 Do not be afraid, you wild animals,
for the pastures in the wilderness are becoming green.(L)
The trees are bearing their fruit;
the fig tree(M) and the vine(N) yield their riches.(O)
23 Be glad, people of Zion,
rejoice(P) in the Lord your God,
for he has given you the autumn rains
because he is faithful.(Q)
He sends you abundant showers,(R)
both autumn(S) and spring rains,(T) as before.
24 The threshing floors will be filled with grain;
the vats will overflow(U) with new wine(V) and oil.
25 “I will repay you for the years the locusts(W) have eaten(X)—
the great locust and the young locust,
the other locusts and the locust swarm[b]—
my great army(Y) that I sent among you.
26 You will have plenty to eat, until you are full,(Z)
and you will praise(AA) the name of the Lord your God,
who has worked wonders(AB) for you;
never again will my people be shamed.(AC)
27 Then you will know(AD) that I am in Israel,
that I am the Lord(AE) your God,
and that there is no other;
never again will my people be shamed.(AF)
The Day of the Lord
28 “And afterward,
I will pour out my Spirit(AG) on all people.(AH)
Your sons and daughters will prophesy,(AI)
your old men will dream dreams,(AJ)
your young men will see visions.
29 Even on my servants,(AK) both men and women,
I will pour out my Spirit in those days.(AL)
30 I will show wonders in the heavens(AM)
and on the earth,(AN)
blood and fire and billows of smoke.
31 The sun will be turned to darkness(AO)
and the moon to blood
before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord.(AP)
32 And everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord(AQ) will be saved;(AR)
for on Mount Zion(AS) and in Jerusalem
there will be deliverance,(AT)
as the Lord has said,
even among the survivors(AU)
whom the Lord calls.[c](AV)
Joel 2:18-32
King James Version
Joel 2:18-32
King James Version
18 Then will the Lord be jealous for his land, and pity his people.
19 Yea, the Lord will answer and say unto his people, Behold, I will send you corn, and wine, and oil, and ye shall be satisfied therewith: and I will no more make you a reproach among the heathen:
20 But I will remove far off from you the northern army, and will drive him into a land barren and desolate, with his face toward the east sea, and his hinder part toward the utmost sea, and his stink shall come up, and his ill savour shall come up, because he hath done great things.
21 Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the Lord will do great things.
22 Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field: for the pastures of the wilderness do spring, for the tree beareth her fruit, the fig tree and the vine do yield their strength.
23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the Lord your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.
24 And the floors shall be full of wheat, and the vats shall overflow with wine and oil.
25 And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you.
26 And ye shall eat in plenty, and be satisfied, and praise the name of the Lord your God, that hath dealt wondrously with you: and my people shall never be ashamed.
27 And ye shall know that I am in the midst of Israel, and that I am the Lord your God, and none else: and my people shall never be ashamed.
28 And it shall come to pass afterward, that I will pour out my spirit upon all flesh; and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy, your old men shall dream dreams, your young men shall see visions:
29 And also upon the servants and upon the handmaids in those days will I pour out my spirit.
30 And I will shew wonders in the heavens and in the earth, blood, and fire, and pillars of smoke.
31 The sun shall be turned into darkness, and the moon into blood, before the great and terrible day of the Lord come.
32 And it shall come to pass, that whosoever shall call on the name of the Lord shall be delivered: for in mount Zion and in Jerusalem shall be deliverance, as the Lord hath said, and in the remnant whom the Lord shall call.
