Acts 2:15–24

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.’ 

²²“Men of Israel, listen to what I say: Jesus from Nazareth was a man whom God brought to your attention. You know that through this man God worked miracles, did amazing things, and gave signs. ²³By using men who don’t acknowledge Moses’ Teachings, you crucified Jesus, who was given over ⸤to death⸥ by a plan that God had determined in advance. ²⁴But God brought him from death back to life and destroyed the pains of death, because death had no power to hold him.
