2 And on the servants and the servant-girls in those days I will send my spirit.
3 And I will let wonders be seen in the heavens and on the earth, blood and fire and pillars of smoke.
4 The sun will be made dark and the moon turned to blood, before the great day of the Lord comes, a day to be feared.
5 And it will be that whoever makes his prayer to the name of the Lord will be kept safe: for in Mount Zion and in Jerusalem some will be kept safe, as the Lord has said, and will be among the small band marked out by the Lord.
6 For in those days and in that time, when I let the fate of Judah and Jerusalem be changed,
7 I will get together all the nations, and make them come down into the valley of Jehoshaphat; and there I will take up with them the cause of my people and of my heritage Israel, whom they have sent wandering among the nations, and of my land which has been parted by them.
8 And they have put the fate of my people to the decision of chance: giving a boy for the price of a loose woman and a girl for a drink of wine.
