Joel 2:28-29

28 El Señor
promete su Espíritu
»Entonces, después de hacer todas esas cosas,
derramaré mi Espíritu sobre toda la gente.
Sus hijos e hijas profetizarán.
Sus ancianos tendrán sueños
y sus jóvenes tendrán visiones.

29 En esos días derramaré mi Espíritu
aun sobre los sirvientes, hombres y mujeres por igual.

In this chapter a further account is given of the judgment of the locusts and caterpillars, or of those who are designed by them, Joe 2:1-11; the people of the Jews are called to repentance, humiliation, and fasting, urged from the grace and goodness of God, his jealousy and pity for his people, and the answer of prayer that might he expected from him upon this, even to the removal of the calamity, Joe 2:12-20; a prophecy of good things, both temporal and spiritual, in the times of the Messiah, is delivered out as matter and occasion of great joy, Joe 2:21-27; and another concerning the effusion of the Spirit, which was fulfilled an the day of Pentecost, Joe 2:28-29; and the chapter is concluded with the judgments and desolations that should come upon the land of Judea after this, for their rejection of Christ, though the remnant according to the election of grace should be delivered and saved from the general destruction, Joe 2:30-32.
