God’s Promise of His Spirit

28 [a] After this(A)
I will pour out My Spirit(B) on all humanity;(C)
then your sons and your daughters will prophesy,
your old men will have dreams,
and your young men will see visions.

on the male and female slaves in those days.(D)

in the heavens and on the earth:(E)
blood, fire, and columns of smoke.

and the moon to blood(F)
before the great and awe-inspiring Day of the Lord comes.(G)

on the name of Yahweh will be saved,(H)
for there will be an escape
for those on Mount Zion and in Jerusalem,
as the Lord promised,(I)
among the survivors the Lord calls.
