JOEL 2:29 Parallel Verse View

Note: This view shows ‘verses’ which are not natural language units and hence sometimes only part of a sentence will be visible. Normally the OET discourages the reading of individual ‘verses’, but this view is only designed as a tool for doing comparisons of different translations. Click on any Bible version abbreviation down the left-hand side to see the verse in more of its context. The OET segments on this page are still very early looks into the unfinished texts of the Open English Translation of the Bible. Please double-check these texts in advance before using in public.

MSG ^(28-32)“And that’s just the beginning: After that—
  “I will pour out my Spirit
  on every kind of people:
Your sons will prophesy,
  also your daughters.
Your old men will dream,
  your young men will see visions.
I’ll even pour out my Spirit on the servants,
  men and women both.
I’ll set wonders in the sky above
  and signs on the earth below:
Blood and fire and billowing smoke,
  the sun turning black and the moon blood-red,
Before the Judgment Day of God,
  the Day tremendous and awesome.
Whoever calls, ‘Help, God!’
  gets help.
On Mount Zion and in Jerusalem
  there will be a great rescue—just as God said.
Included in the survivors
  are those that God calls.”

בַּ⁠יָּמִ֣ים הָ⁠הֵ֔מָּה

(ba⁠yyāmim hā⁠hēmmāh)
