Acts 2:14-21 New English Translation (NET)

14. But Peter stood up with the eleven, raised his voice, and addressed them: “You men of Judea and all you who live in Jerusalem, know this and listen carefully to what I say.

15. In spite of what you think, these men are not drunk, for it is only nine o’clock in the morning.

16. But this is what was spoken about through the prophet Joel:

17. ‘And in the last days it will be,’ God says,‘that I will pour out my Spirit on all people,and your sons and your daughters will prophesy,and your young men will see visions,and your old men will dream dreams.

18. Even on my servants, both men and women,I will pour out my Spirit in those days, and they will prophesy.

19. And I will perform wonders in the sky aboveand miraculous signs on the earth below,blood and fire and clouds of smoke.

20. The sun will be changed to darknessand the moon to bloodbefore the great and glorious day of the Lord comes.

21. And then everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.’
