15For these men are not drunk, as you suppose, since it is only the third hour of the day; 16but this is what was spoken by the prophet Joel:

17‘And in the last days it shall be, God declares,

that I will pour out my Spirit upon all flesh,

and your sons and your daughters shall prophesy,

and your young men shall see visions,

and your old men shall dream dreams;

18yea, and on my menservants and my maidservants in those days

I will pour out my Spirit; and they shall prophesy.

19And I will show wonders in the heaven above

and signs on the earth beneath,

blood, and fire, and vapor of smoke;

20the sun shall be turned into darkness

and the moon into blood,

before the day of the Lord comes,

the great and manifest day.

21And it shall be that whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved.’

22“Men of Israel, hear these words: Jesus of Nazareth, a man attested to you by God with mighty works and wonders and signs which God did through him in your midst, as you yourselves know— 23this Jesus, delivered up according to the definite plan and foreknowledge of God, you crucified and killed by the hands of lawless men. 24But God raised him up, having loosed the pangs of death, because it was not possible for him to be held by it.
