God’s Promise of His Spirit
28 After this 2:28–32 Ac 2:17–21
I will pour out my Spirit 2:28 Is 32:15; 44:3; Ezk 39:29 on all humanity; 2:28 Is 40:5; 49:26
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. 2:29 1Co 12:13
30 I will display wonders
in the heavens and on the earth: 2:30 Lk 21:11,25–26
blood, fire, and columns of smoke.
31 The sun will be turned to darkness
and the moon to blood 2:31 Is 13:9–10; 34:4; Mt 24:29; Mk 13:24
before the great and terrible day of the Lord comes. 2:31 Zph 1:14–16; Mal 4:1,5
32 Then everyone who calls
on the name of the Lord will be saved, 2:32 Rm 10:13
for there will be an escape
for those on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,
as the Lord promised, 2:32 Ob 17
among the survivors the Lord calls.
