¹²All of these devout men were stunned and puzzled. They asked each other, “What can this mean?” ¹³Others said jokingly, “They’re drunk on sweet wine.”

Peter Talks to the Crowd

¹⁴Then Peter stood up with the eleven apostles. In a loud voice he said to them, “Men of Judea and everyone living in Jerusalem! You must understand this, so pay attention to what I say. ¹⁵These men are not drunk as you suppose. It’s only nine in the morning. ¹⁶Rather, this is what the prophet Joel spoke about:

¹⁷‘In the last days, God says,

I will pour my Spirit on everyone.

Your sons and daughters will speak what God has revealed.

Your young men will see visions.

Your old men will dream dreams.

¹⁸In those days

I will pour my Spirit on my servants, on both men and women.

They will speak what God has revealed.

¹⁹I will work miracles in the sky and give signs on the earth:

blood, fire, and clouds of smoke.

²⁰The sun will become dark,

and the moon will become as red as blood

before the terrifying day of the Lord comes.

²¹Then whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’
